What's wrong with my bow?

I have a Checkmate TD Hunter that is shooting like it always haswhich is great when I do my part.
The problem I have is sometimes (not every time) I get a clicking sound when unstringing the bow. Yes, I am using a stringer. So what is the problem and possible solutions?

Are the limb bolts tight? Might put something between the limbs and limb pads. Could try bow wax. Maybe a very shin layer of cork, leather, plastic, etc. Something to take up any gaps in the fit and provide some cushioning. That's if the noise is coming from the riser/limb butt area. If it's coming from the limb tip area, you probably have too much wax on the string near the loops.

Bolt seemed tight, but I took the limb off. Then applied wax to pad, and riser pin which seems to have cured the problem.
Thanks,
Dave
