I've shot a WB for the past 3 yrs and with all the talk about drop away's is there any advantage to changing. I use to shoot a TM hunter style rest for years and switched to the WB and there was a drastic improvement in arrow flight. I am always looking to improve and I'm hoping you guys can provide some feedback :D.
 
There was a thread going earlier today about biscuits with some good info. The only downside I had w/ it was tough on fletching, I switched to a fallaway because of that. I do like the way the biscuit holds the arrow in place a little better but don't miss it too bad.
 
If you have a WB setup properly and have good shooting form , there isn't much difference in arrow flight within effective hunting range with a WB and drop away .
I had drop aways on two of my bows and took them off for hunting ,and replaced them with a WB on one bow ,and NAP 360 on the other .
I can shoot just as good with the capture rests , and I like the simplicity of them over the drop away rests .
I like to keep things simple for hunting .
 
I have used the drop away rest for 5 years now, love it and no regrets at all. Sweet and always easy on the fletch. Havent dropped an arrow off of the arrest either.........
 
have no problems using whisker biscuit with 2" blazer vanes they seem to be more durable when using wb.
 
I have found the NAP 360 to be easier to tune and easier on fletchings , but you can still bump the arrow off the rest .
 
I've shot several different rests and I like WB the best because of the fact it holds arrow sucurely and also the new version with v cut makes for easy loading as well
 
I have been using one since they first came out , and have never had them rip the fletchings off of a properly fletched arrow when the WB is setup properly .
 
I shoot a WB2 quick release version. Have for three years...with Fletchings. I target shoot alot more than hunt due to the job. I will say with three inch fletches I have NEVER torn one off the bow shooting thru the WB. I have had some wear after a great number of shots on the outside of the flethings but not enough to chage the flight of the arrow ir affect accuracy. Fletchings/Vanes or whatever you use will eventually wear or bend or whatever on a target anyway. If the WB is correctly set up (Thanks Frankie @ Woods&Waters) you will not have a problem with fletchings, vanes or anything else. I cant answer for the original WB, but then again thats why they improve and make better or upgraded models.
