RE: hunting bow rest
Maybe if Jimmy cleans Vegas again this year I might be vindicated for my years worth of leading the Whisker Bisquit Cult...Nahhh....I'll still be beat up like the Mathews guys...LOL...
Mayber if Jimmy wins the shoot off this year I'll be vindicated...Nope...Somebody's going to have to win an IBO or ASA major event with one....LOL
Frankly, I'm not sure there is anyone on these boards as consistently accurate as Jimmy Despart. If the rest works for him and Pinwheel it's going to work for the rest of us.
I set this rest up on my own without a pro-shop. The naysayers want you to think it's difficult. It was a Hell of a lot easier to set up than any two prong I have tried.
Accuracy is great too.. I've robinhooded arrows at 40 yds, shot 6" groups at 60, and killed a caribou at 50, all with fixed blade broadheads at 280 fps and "crappy" GoldTip XT arrows. How more accurate does it need to be?
I had to switch to a Copper John drop away to stay legal in the NFAA Bowhunter Freestyle Division (any rest that is 1/4" above the arrow is illegal) and my scores have not gone up a single point. If drop aways were supposed to be so darned good why haven't they gone up?
The Whisker Bisquit....it's not just for hunting anymore [8D]
