I'm not sure about the amount of arrow noise being the problem as opposed to the kind of noise the arrow makes. I have shot string trackers for close to 40 years. The noise I hear as the string comes out of the center of the spool seems to be much louder than the noise an arrow makes with out it. Even so, I hardly ever have a deer move before the arrow gets there. I've even missed high and the string was laying on the deer's back and they didn't move. I think the string noise covers the arrow noise and is a more natural sound and doesn't alarm them.
I do think compounds make a more unnatural noise and the deer move more than they do with stick bows. At least all the videos posted on here seem to show that.
