| | I don't have a wisker biscut rest but try switching to feathers. I think they would work alot better for you than vanes with that rest. | | | |

| Also make sure the odd vane is pointing up(parrallel to to the string)
There are stiffer bristles at the bottom of the WB to hold the arrow at the right height to launch.If your fletchings catch on those bristles they are more apt to tear
These are things that I found out the hard way, but I still like WB rest even though I'm trying a drop-away rest at this time. | | | |

| I'd give the Bitzenburger a try before you give up. Make sure your alignment is good. A little off one way or another and no vane will stick. The two flaps that give you the contact surface to the vane must have as much contact with the arrow as possible. In addition, be sure you're giving plenty of time for the glue to set before removing the jig...
Best of luck! | | | |

| Yeah, I shoot blazers thru a WB and a dab fore and aft will solve all your problems. Just make sure to shoot the co** vane up.

| | i use carbon arrows with a 2'' blazer vanes, and i had an arrow rest just like the one you have. what i did was put some glue on the tip of the vanes and it stop. with my drop- away arrow rest i do the same thing to the arrow. it helps. | | | |

| | Use alittle more glue on the whole vane as well as the front and back. Also check the wraps some glue's do not adhere well to some wraps. | |
