Wisker biscuit freeze up?

[oldfarmsblueman]

I was talking to a bow hunter and he asked me
what arrow rest I used.He was dead set against the
biscuit because he had one freeze up on him.Anyone
ever had that problem

It is possible for the whiskers to all freeze together ... in that case you run your finger thru the bristles and break 'em apart. They are still frozen but back in true form. Under the same conditions a drop away can freeze also (real soaking wet day - or bow left out at night - that turns colder and freezes up) -- in this case you're up the creek and have to thaw/dry the rest out.
