    Hey everyone, tonight was the last straw for me. I had three does jump a fence and walk out 15 yards from me, i was on the ground (no trees available for a stand) and as i drew they spooked and trotted back into the bush. My padding on my rest is warn down it makes a sound as i draw my bow. I have my replacement rest piece, but was just wondering what i can use for padding and how to attach it? Thanks!

    What rest do you have? I had the felt come off of my lock down rest so I put a piece of electrical tape on it and that made it quiet on the draw!

    Buy some Mole-Skin from the pharmacy. It works great.

    Have never had any issues with my QAD but I had a trophy taker before & got some sled adhesive felt @ hobby lobby that worked really good & cost me about $2.
