Sturdy but noisy - T-Reign Retractable Gear Tether Hunting Series, Xtra Duty, 14oz

I bought this to tether a lightweight archery rangefinder. This is a sturdily built piece of equipment. However, it is also quite noisy, both pulling and retracting. It sounds like a bit like a coffee grinder when retracting. So it it too noisy for archery or crossbow hunting. But it will probably work for rifle hunting at greater distances from the game.
