Once again the issueof the WB makes the noise when shooting. It is the finish on the arrow that makes the noise.Last Sat while at the proshop shooting, I took my friend's GT camo finished arrow & drew it thru the WB. You could hear it all the way thru the length of the arrow. I then took my Easton Axis ST, no noise. Same result on his fall away rest. The finish on my arrow is very smooth, & almost has a waxy type finish to it. You can feel the camo finish on the GT's. That is what makes the noise. I too had a fall away. The noise it made was when it fell & hit the shelf. The shelf had a soft neoprene insulator on it. Just my .02.
