I purchased a new bow last week, and it is a Reflex bow (a division of Hoyt). But anyway, it came with the Whisker Biscuit, and maybe it is just me, but it seems like the ''whiskers" are wearing away at a fast pace. I notice that the black whiskers are becoming shorter in one section. Also, are the whiskers supposed to get a little ''messed up" after each shot.
P.S. I just wanted to say that I DO have the arrow positioned correctly in the rest, therefore, the fletchings hit the rest in the correct positions.
They make a couple kinds - one for Aluminum Arrows and one for carbons.
When I bought my Bowtech, it came with the Carbon Arrow version but the guy at the archery shop swapped it for me.
If you are shooting aluminum arrows through the narrower biscuit, it makes sense why the black is getting shorter. As to the biscuit getting "messed up", it is normal.
Mens Carhartt Jeans - Guide to the Cooking in Jeans
Guide to the various denim washes and features of mens Carhatt jeans
There is perhaps no other clothing that has the kind of variety that denim has. The number of different washes and styles that it is available in leaves the consumer with too much of a choice and this could sometimes result in buying a pair of mens Carhatt jeans with a wash or feature that might not be the right one for you. To help you choose better, here's a quick look at what is available and suits would suit you best.
The rinse
The rinse is the darkest kind of denim that is available in the market. It refers to the process that is just a quick rinse with water and maybe some softener during the production process. These kinds of jeans generally have a tag attached to them informing the buyer that these need to be washed separately and inside out as the dyes tend to run and might get onto other clothes. You also need to be careful while wearing these jeans if you are going to be in contact with light upholstery or fabric as the color might tend to dry bleed and rub off onto the fabric that it comes in contact with. Rinse denim mens Carhatt jeans look great on all bodies especially those who are on the slightly heavier side.
Stone wash jeans
Stone wash mens Carhatt jeans are also a great choice. These jeans are stone washed with enzymes or just plain and this results in jeans that have some of their or darkness retained to jeans that are very light. Stone washed jeans are washed by using pumice in the laundering, the same kind of pumice that you use to scrub your feet. The enzymes are used to get rid of the pilling that the stone might create in the fabric.
Sandblasted jeans
To achieve this effect on mens Carhatt jeans the denim is subjects to shots of sand that has an abrasive effect on them. This gives the denim a worn out look. The process of sandblasting is carried out before the industrial wash stage. Subtle sandblasting can compliment the thighs very well. However if you tend to have thick thighs avoid heavy sandblasting. Heavy sand blasting gives the jeans a white look and draws too much attention to the thighs.
Whiskers
Whiskers are referred to the effect of fading at the hip, crotch and back of the knee areas of mens Carhatt jeans. This gives the jeans the effect of being very old. This type of feature accentuates the hips so they are best worn by people with rectangular boyish bodies.
Abrasion and grinding
Abrasion and grinding are techniques that are similar to each other in that they give the denim an old and worn out look. Abrasion is a bit harsher than grinding. Mens Carhatt jeans with this effect can be pass off as excellent casual wear. Mens Carhatt jeans with the grinding effect can also pass of as a little dressier if teamed with the right kind of clothes and accessories.
2 days ago I took my Mane Coon cat to have his yearly shaving and rabies vaccine. He hates the vet so when they shave him they have to knock him out. That was Monday and it is now Wednesday and he is still acting like he is doped up from the anesthesia and not at all himself. He sleeps in a different spot and hasn’t come up to me at all and he does that all the time. He seems lethargic and unsteady, also I notices that his whiskers were cut off on one side! I think there might have been a new groomer because he has always come out normal before. So basically my question is, is it his whiskers being cut that is making him act weird or could it be a reaction to the rabies shot or the anesthesia? I have called my vet and am waiting on a call back but in the meantime I thought I would pick the brains of the good people of Yahoo. Please help, I am worried about my kitty.
It's the anesthesia. The same thing happend to my cat when the put her under for her yearly dental cleaning. Every time they put a cat under it can have a different effect. With mine they had to check her organ functions to make sure she was propery breaking down the anesthesia. It took 5 days but it was a relief that she was ok.
As for cutting 1 side of the whiskers that is untrue. They grow out to a cats body width but to not provide balance. Ask you vet.
