Whisker Biscuit Bow sight

anyone here use the newer style of whisker biscuit bow sight? I am thinking of getting my bow tuned up for this fall, especially if I pull one of those elusive 5-14 doe tags.

Also, any advice on purchasing a release, I have never shot with one, and just want to know if there is anything I should avoid if possible.

thanks
Starvin

The only release I've used is my Jim Fletcher concho style. It was set up for a very light pull when I got it and I left it that way. I suppose it's out dated and not fashionable nowadays

Thumbs up

Did you mean sight or rest? I use a biscuit rest for hunting and love it! I f your shooting 3-D I would go with something more consistant like a dual prong or flipper.

The Whiskerbiscuit is a great rest for hunting I use it and it works really well.You can stalk with it and the arrow wont fall off.I also use a truball release and have no problems with it.

I've just picked up a whisker biscuit and it's peeled off one vane form every arrow within ten rounds. Do you guys go to feathers for your biscuits??
