RE: Arrow rest noise....Seems I'm not the only one....
Jeff,
The reason I use a drop away rest is for how quite they are. Put some moleskin in the rest and you are all done.
I make sure everything is dead quite the best I can.
I also use Carbon Express Terminator Hunter Select arrows, because of the Buff Tuff coating they have. No need to was or oil, already very smooth and quite.
