I've been shooting off the shelf with a rug-style rest (shelf) and felt pads (strike plate) on my Hoyt Game Master 2, and its quiet on the draw and no obvious sound when releasing an arrow.
Most of the members in my club are Olympic-style shooters and when they draw back their arrows, I hear a LOT of screeching (especially aluminum shafts) and noise. They don't care about noise on the draw.
So from a hunting perspective, if I wanted to use an elevated rest / plunger combo, are they quiet when drawing an arrow back? What kinds of rests are recommended or do you really have to put some heat shrink tubing on the wire rests I've seen?
Many thanks,
Daniel.
