My arrow makes a little noise when drawing it back. Could it be the rest or arrows and what can I do to quite them down a bit? Its not a lot of noise but it usually happens half way on my draw cycle. I wouldn't want a deer to bust me for that.

What is in that area on the arrow. If it was the finish, you would hear it on the full length of the draw. It could be a logo. You can use nail polish remover and a little scrubbing to remove it most of the time. What are you using for a rest? Is it a compound or traditional equipment? If traditional, I like calf hair. Very smooth and quiet. If it is a compound, moleskin is your friend. After a while (2 yrs) it will not be as quiet but it is easy to replace. I like the thin mole skin. Not the thick padded stuff.

No offense but whisker biscuits are probably the loudest rest in the archery world. The sound that comes from the friction of the arrow being held & passing through all those bristles is secure but extremely noisy. If you want quiet, go fall away & get the moleskin or felt wrap. I am loving my new rest, QAD ultrarest HD. Virtually silent & deadly accurate.
