Anybody having problems with accuracy with the Whisper Biscuit? Started a thread on another site and got bombarded. I hate this thing. It is not nearly as accurate as my TM Hunter.

Wow, I hope you get it straightened out, I loved mine, but I sold the bow. I have to put up with this prong thingy on my new bow until I can afford another one. Is there a bow pro somewhere you can get setup help with??

is the oipening diameter fitting tightly on your arrow?

i dont shoot with a wb.....but i was at the bow shop today and the pro there was talking whisker biskets and told the other guy....you want it loose fitting with space so the arrow is more accurate and quieter on draw.

he said the arrow will find its way to straight easily with some play in the rest.

i dunno made sense to me....lol...i use a tm hunter too

I shoot the Wisker Biscuit and I love it. My arrow fits it just a little lose. Wouldn't use any other rest. I hate the prong rest. Use them for years. Went to the Wisker Biscuit and loved it right away. Hope you find the right solution to your problem. TDA

I have been shooting my Wisker Biscuit and get exceptional accuracy. 4th year shooting with it and my accuracy and consistence is outstanding. I would not consider any other rest.

WB is by far the best rest I've ever used. After two seasons of hunting and practicing the bisquit got a little frayed so I just put in a new one. No other adjustments were necessary. Did you have the rest set up by someone who knew what they were doing. It's a pretty easy rest to tune.

Try a whisper disk by Golden Key Archery, it's basically the same idea but a different design. I bought mine last year at Gander Mountain for $20 and it works well for me-no complaints!

Your biscuit will show shooting flaws more than many other rests because of the total arrow containment. You MUST have a good follow through.

It makes a difference which way you have the arrow in the rest on my bows.Odd feather up and its right on the money.Im real happy with the WB.My fastest bow IBOs at 330+ and its wearing a WB.Will be using it on the season opener tomorrow. :wink:

I just got a Whisker Biscuit QS (camo) put on mine and I absolutely love it. If anything, my accuracy has gone up due to the confidence of the arrow staying there. Plus it's super quiet, as opposed to the prong rest that came with my bow, the shaft would slide along the metal prongs causing noise. Unless I'm using aluminum's (as last resort, and just yesterday and today) in my biscuit, there is absolutely no noise

i have a friend that shoots one and there great if you dont hunt alot but when you start practice shooting you may want to just go to a regular rest because your going to be goin through alot og fletching. there acurate though.

I have shot a lot of arrows through mine. I have shot a lot of the same arrows when practicing and have not mess up any fletchings. I have used them for years and I will not use anything else.

I just bought one, it's great for stalking. Your arrow will not fall off the rest. I am very impressed with how gizmo free it is also, no tinkering required. Put it on your bow and forget about it.

I have had great results with the whisker biscuit.

I set the bow at an even tiller and nock the arrow at 90degrees to the bowstring.

The windage is determined by shooting the correct spine arrow for the bow at a vertical at 10-20-30yards. When the bow hits the same vertical line at all distances its set right.

If the bow is in tune and you are shooting the correct spine arrow for the bow there is nothing quieter or more accurate than the biscuit.

An out of tune bow with an out of adjustment rest shooting the incorrect spine arrow will be noisey and wear the fletching.

Good luck hunting! >>>------------>

The WB is the best hunting rest out there. If set up correctly they are awesome..... I just shot a turkey this past Sunday at 38 yards... They are more then accurate......
