Silencing arrows???
 
I've been shooting Gold Tip XT camo arrows for the past couple of seasons and have noticed that the GT's that I bought this summer are quite a bit noisier when you draw them back than the one's I got last year. Although the noise isn't too bad...it's like a scratching sound, I think that a deer may be able to hear it if it's close enough on a calm night. Is there anything that I can do to make the arrows quieter when I draw them back??? By the way, I'm using a NAP Quicktune rest with teflon sleeves on hte launchers. Thanks.

Camo carbons are noisier than plain ones. Try putting moleskin on your rest arms. It's alot quieter than those teflon sleeves.

I use silicone spray on my arrows to quit them down. Spray the silcone on a clean cloth then wipe down the arrows. You'll be surprised how quit your arrows become. The smell is gone in about an hour. Works great on any type of arrows.
