drop away or whisker biscuit?

It's got to be a Trophy Taker or it won't be on my bow.

Trophy taker for me Have hunted with a biscuit before and it worked well. Still run them on a few bows and my wifes bow as well.

Had whisker biscuit, Trophy Taker Dropaway and NAP Quiktune Sizzor.  Whisker biscuit was great, but destroyed a lot of fletchings if I shot a lot.  Trophy taker, I think was set wrong and would drop away too quickly, so was impossible to tune.  Could have tried to fix it, but bought the Sizzor which makes adjustment of the timing easy.  I get the benefit of full containment, holding the arrow as long as I want it to, and yet have it release before the fletchings reach the rest, which makes it easy to tune.  My field tips are on the plate out to 80 yards and my broadheads out to 70 yards are on the plate 3/4 of the time.  I think the other 1/4 is poorer form rather than the bow tuning.

Started out with a whisker biscuit but ended up wanting to try a drop away and have had one since. I shoot a limb driver Pro v provides full containment and no worries about timing. Great rest.

I use a dropp away fater having a WB... Better acuracy. The other option is the OCTAINE rest or the NAP ??quick tune?? They hold the arrow with 3 brushes so ther is no fletching contact. My wifes bow has an Octaine...

Got to agree on the hunting vs 3d/target shooting tho.

Drop away!

drop away is my vote...but to be fair I have never shot with a whisker biscuit...just have always have great success with a drop away...no reason to try a WB

I tried a WB for a while...could never achieve perfect (or close to) bare shaft flight.  Drop away for me. Take a look at this picture. I took  an aluminum arrow shaft split it length wise and  glued it to the shelf of the riser. I covered it with tanned deer skin. The arrow sits in the "cradle" and you can turn the bow almost upside down without it falling out. The drop away lifts the arrow out of the cradle for the shot. Works great. I found this in an archery book......I take no credit for it.
