I have one on both my bows.  I like that I can knock an arrow and don't have to worry about it falling off the rest.  Had a buddy that missed an elk a couple of years ago 'cause the arrow came off when he was drawing at an awkward angle...
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

WB's slow down your arrow a touch.  Also, they can be a little rough on fletching, especially feathers.  I have one on my bow and it shoots well.

Here is a thread that has people's opinions on whisker biscuits and drop aways.

http://hunting-washington.com/smf/index.php/topic,19775.0.html

You won't have any problem with the whisker biscuit and your fletchings if you shoot your arrows with blazer vanes. The standard 4" vanes will get a wavy look to them.

One other quuick note I put 1 on my martin, like how it holds arrow etc., but I instinctive shoot and had to put 1 30yrd pin on because the darn thing is in the way of sighting down the arrow.   :(  just my   :twocents:

Also consider the Octane Hostage Pro. Just like the WBiscuit but without the vane contact. I like them both.
May the morning silence be broken with the wisp of vanes trailing blades to their mark.

I trimmed my daughters WB where the vanes hit, no more issue.

I love mine. Theres a video on youtube of a guy with a fred bear bow shooting groups with one at 100 yards so it must not effect your accuracy that much ;p

I shoot one.  Mainly because I don't want my arrow to fall off the rest.  As far as tearing up fletching goes, I put a drop of glue on the leading edge of the fletching and it helps.  I don't care too much about losing a little speed.
