A question about rests

[Robert W. McCoy Jr]

I see alot of you guys are switching to the biscuit type rests.

Is there an advantage of the bisket over a drop away?

I shoot the muzzy zero affect right now but I'm always looking for something better.

the mze is great. The only thing i can see the wb being good for is holding an arrow! i dont see it helping with anything else other than fletchings being replaced, and biskets being replaced! i had one for about a week! hated it


just my 2 cents

Stick with the MZE Robert. Those WB are great for some things....like cleaning spark plugs, washing silverware :lol: :D

Rob,You can make the switch, but I bet you you'll switch back to the MZE pretty quickly! If you like the MZE and the drop away rests, stick with it. At this point, I can't believe I will ever switch to anything but another drop away.

Rob, I switched last year to a drop away, but I went in the shop to get a whisker biscuit. The guy who helps me out with these kinds of things talked me right out of it. This is what he told me and it makes sense. The only thing that the wb is good for is if you do a lot of stalking with your bow, because it holds the arrow in place. And then this is what changed my mind, Your whole arrow has to pass through that wb from the rest point to the nock and if you flinch just a little bit you can throw the arrow flight off . Now it might not be much but it could be enough. Where the drop aways, your arrow dont travel down the rest the whole length of your arrow. Hope this helps
