I am really  starting to enjoy the benefits  of  the whisker bisquit, in my case i think it may be the best choice  first and foremost  i am a hunter and to me simler is better  it is hard to beat the simplicity of the wb,  i was using a golden key tm style rest on a hog hunt  while stalking through thick bush  i knocked the rest off several times  the areas i hunt are so thick and i need  the arrow to stay on the rest.  i am not  a competive archer and speed is not everything to me.  back 10 yrs  ago  i  did shoot  well  enought  to bwe competiive in the finger divisions of the nfaa i believe bohunter freestyle division.  i used a martin prowler and 2512 arrows  with  a  nap centerest flipper. i remember this rest  while hunting i knocked  the arrow off several times also  buti liked the flipper arm as it  just snapped out  of  the way  once again thanks to all  if  i  can   get hunt101.com to work id send  some pics of my hog hunt
