I know you're asking about the pro but I think they'll be about the same for noise on the draw, the original and the pro that is. Probably comparible to the Whisker biscuit too as that was my experience with the original. What I found was that if you are shooting a smooth finished black arrow like the Easton Axis the noise on draw is hardly detectable even just inches away from it. Now if you are shooting a camo finished arrow like the Easton Axis Obsession arrow the noise on draw is definitily noticable and was unexceptable for me.

I'm now shooting a limbdriver and couldn't be happier. The way I have mine set up it's completely quiet on the draw and super quiet on the shot. I've never shot more consistent groups like I do now but that's probably just me. I know longer get the occasional flyer like I did with the whisker biscuit but I like to shoot full helical on blazers too.

I don't find the cord on the limbdriver to be an issue at all. I walk through thick stuff all the time and have never had an issue with it. The loop cord used on it is super tough and you're more likely to mess something else up on your bow before you would mess this thing up.

Hope this helps and good luck with whatever you choose.
