Buckle would be the way to go and it is alot less noisy than the velcro. I had the same problem not to long ago, so I contacted Scott archery and one of their reps e-mailed info on purchasing directly from them. Also note that if you have a late model release( the older threaded rod style ) that you will need the buckle strap designed for that model. Let me know if you need the contacts e-mail or phone number .
