What are some tips on silencing my drop away rest? When I draw back I can hear the arrow slide against the rest. Any help appreciated.

Just go to On Target, and I'm willing to bet $100 that they would have you fixed up in under 5 minutes.

Mole skin (or felt or whatever they call it). You can get it at Academy.

QAD comes with a cut molded piece of felt for the fall away rest. You could also put a dab of petroleum jelly on four arrow.

I get that stuff they use on corns on your feet from Walgreens or CVS, it' usually a tan color, I hit it was a black Sharpie and the last time I had to buy any was over five years ago, and I put together a lot of bows a year. It's cheap and goes a long way. It's just like mole skin.
