Default whisker biscuit noise when drawing?

Do any of you whisker biscuit users have any trouble with noise when drawing your bow? I have been noticing that I can hear mine and am wondering if its going to cause trouble when I'm hunting this fall. Its not loud but I hear it. I'm shooting gold tip carbon arrows if that matters...

i noticed alot of noice when i had some beman ics classics with the woodgrain finish on em and tried everything to get it to quiet down but nothing seemed to work so i switched to the ics hunters and that pretty much solved the problem im not sure if that helps any, just my experience with that problem

Armor All or string wax on the bisquit may help, I have no noise problems with mine so this is just a guess

thanks for the responses. I could see it being as much a function of the arrow finish as anything.

My wife shoots CX Terminator Hunters through hers and when we shoot together I can't hear them, must have something to do with the finish on the arrows. Her new Rebel Hunters are a tiny bit noisier, but its nothing an animal would ever hear, unless it was standing on the rest.

I use aluminum arrows. When I first used the WB I could hear a noise when I was drawing them. I switched to a string loop and the noise went away. Must have been the angle the arrow was at when I was drawing the bow.

make sure the biscuit is on straight cause my friend was having the same problem and we paper sighted it and saw it wasnt straight and once we corrected the problem it was quiet
