Default Solving Noisy Draw

I was wondering what would be the best way to solve that pesky creaking noise that happens when you draw aluminum arrows? I have been thinkingg maybe instead of using those plastic shrink wrap tubes again, I'll cover my arrow rest prongs with moleskin. Any feedback on how this would affect arrow flight? Or clearance?

Anything you put on your prongs will cause less vane clearance if you are not using a fallaway type rest. Try putting a thin film of vaseline non petrolium jelly on your forks.

You can buy new launchers with teflon tips. They,ve been available for a couple years now. You need to visit the pro shop more often.
