Title: whisker biscuits
Post by: ruttnbuck on October 23, 2008, 07:53:01 PM: I have a martin bow, 64 lb draw and shooting beman 400 27'' arrows. I'm shooting through a whisker biscuit and can't seem too get arrows too shoot straight consistantly. I'm shooting 100 grain wackem broadheads and also shoot them while I practice . It seems like when I get out past 30 yards I have fishtailing and sometimes spiraling.This is my 1st year bowhunting with this new bow. Just lookin for any ideas that I might be able too check thanks . >:

It is easy to do, but watch them the first time. I doubt if it is your whisker buiscuit, lots of people use them with success. I always thought they looked like the would have to effect your arrow, but I guess they don't.
