This has got to be the best rest I have ever used. I'm not sure what you mean by looks noisy This thing is all buisness. I actually have both of my bows outfitted with them. Both bows are Diamonds. Actually, they are the Gander Mtn. exclusives. The 07 Tec Hunter Elite, and the 08 Tec Hunter Exterminator.

I have shot a good number of differnt mechanical rests and this is the best as far as I am concerned.

Just my thoughts mind you. Others may not feel as good about it as I do. I don't know how, anyone could say anything bad about it, but anything is possible.
