I have a fall away rest on my bow, but if my draw is a little quick, the arrow will fall off. If this happened drawing on a nice buck I'm afraid of what I might do to my bow! Looks like a wisker biscuit maybe more secure. Any opinions?? Your best bet is to just try one and see if you like it, as you can see there are various opinions.

The Whisker Biscuit throws my arrows off at 20 Yards but once I get out they sure do spread!! It is a consistent Spread so I know it is not me! But The good thing is that it is in Vital Area

I have been using a whisker biscuit for about 4 years now. I hear the same old same all the time. Its loud, it affects your groups, it ruins your fletchings, it slows your arrow down. Those are all just excuses. No matter what everyone says, there is a reason that the whisker biscuit is the most widely used rest out there, it works. And there is nothing to worry about with it, it is very simple.
I shoot a Hoyt Vectrix with Beaman Team Realtree 10.8GPI arrows, at 66lbs. Shoots 286 FPS. No noise pulling back. Never had an arrow lose its fletching unless you count the fletching I hit because my groups are so tight.
Hands down the whisker biscuit cannot be beat for hunting situations.

WB for me all the way! Have tried drop aways cause my buddy had one and the first time i used it the arrow fell off, luck for me i wasnt huntin. Tried the WB and never looked for anything else. Now my wifes and the daughter have em and like was said if you get the right one for your arrows there is no noise or any other problems.

They make a product that keeps the arrow from falling off of a drop-a-way.

WB for me and with blazer fletching it doesnt seem to affect my groups I guess a 2in group at 40 yards is good right.

Here's a thought......instead of worrying if your arrow is going to fall off the rest when you draw your bow......PRACTICE MORE SO YOU DON'T HAVE THAT PROBLEM.....

Drop Away all the way. With it I can keep tighter groups at a longer distance.
 You can't fix stupid but you can numb it with a 2x4
