I don't see why the silent method for velcro couldn't be applied to zippers as well.

Alot of times I get impatient and rip it to get it done and over with. I always think Ive made too much noise but they come in anyhow.

Velcro bugs me way more than the popup zips...I adjust my see through camo netting to where I don't have it tightly attached on my shooting window. Only trick I can tell you for velcro is to peel it back on itself & squeeze / pinch with pressure while slowly peeling it back.
For the zipper I don't use the handle at all....I push/pull the zipper with my finger to open & then squeeze the main zipper with the thumb to close. Muffles it a little vs using the handle.
I love it when All the birds come awake at the same come sunrise...that always gives you a chance to be loud for a sec.Last edited by Artos; 11-11-2019, 04:02 PM.
