    My whisker biscuit has just recently start to make noise when I draw back, it makes a little rubbing sound about half way through my draw. I have just kinda trained myself to push up against my arrow to keep it from happening but it is still a pain. It a new rest and its not a cheap one, $55 Trophy Ridge. Have any of you guys had a problem like this? How'd you fix it?

    I just searched the forum, I found some threads on my issue, I guess I can deal with it.

    Do the whiskers show sign of wear?
    They make replacement biscuit kits, I can usually find them in the bargain cave or on clearance for under $10.

    Also, are you sure your using the correct sized biscuit for your arrow?
    There should be a slight gap between the arrow and the top of the hole.

    I've sprayed my bisquit with silicon. After it dries there is no smell that I can detect. I never heard any loud noise just a light scrape when drawing back. My bisquit might be on the small size for my arrows, though, especially with arrow wraps.
