I just started shooting with blazers and haven't had a problem *yet.*

Before that I was using just a basic 4" vane and found a drip of glue at the tip of the fletch kept them from being pulled.
Over time they would get a little wavy, but arrow flight didn't really seem affected.

ive had quite a few blazers ripped of from it. but i also found a dab of glue and the fronts and backs of the vanes worked wonders.

I took my biscuit and shaved the hairs off were they would come in contact with my blazer vanes. Worked great and improved my group!

Great idea Headshot, can't believe I never thought about that I have been wanting to go to this rest but didn't want the problems associated with it, this might help a lot. Even if the bristles freeze from the weather this would still allow it to function like its supposed too, thanks for the tip.

I have never lost a blazer vane shooting through a WB and I have shot 2 solid years with them approximately 2-3000 shots. Never had a problem with frozen whiskers either. I firmly beleive that it is one of the better hunting rests on the market. Don't be afraid to give one a try, very inexpensive compared to other rests. If tuned correctly you can have excellent groups. C@%& vane up so that your bottom 2 vanes straddle the black whiskers. The black whiskers are stiffer to keep the arrow from sinking down at release.

I shoot blazer vanes thru my ws and I have never had a problem.

IMO its the best way to fly!!   Can always use arrow wraps.  Near impossible to get vanes off a wrap.

I meant WB. I should proof read before I send

Or you can just shave your biscuit as I did? Just dont tell your wife, girl friend, or other! hahaha

I've got a hostage rest on my bow and I found that the lower right vanes were getting wavy. After looking at it some more, I realized the blazer vanes were hitting the cable and not necessarily being affected by the rest; especially where it was always the lower right one.

I ended up putting a new cable slide on and it solved the problem. I bet if I continued shooting it like that, I would've started losing vanes.

Is it pretty consistent with a specific vane or are all of the vanes getting munged up?

I shoot 4" vanes and mine have gotten wavy from the whisker biscuit.  Didnt really seem to make a difference, but it made me uncomfortable so I was never a fan. I went back to a drop away and have been fine.

I have heard that if you trim the whiskers down that wil help and that a lot of people do this, I shoot 4 in vanes and do get the ripple effect but doesn't make a difference in where the arrow hits.
