Noisy WB?!?!? Mine makes no noise...maybe you have the wrong size?
My rest on my old compound was one that had 3 metal prongs that held the arrow (like the new hostage rest but metal) It was the loudest rest I have had. but the deer never heard it.

And it worked for many years and it share of deer.
The captured arrow drop aways are cool but its something to fail IMO. I'd like to try one some time but for hunting, the WB and hostage are awesome rests. My oppinion of course.
