I use Velcro, leather, etc but my favorite ever is calf hair.  Beavertail is nice too.

What ever is silent. If I replace my shelf material or side plate and hear any noise when I draw it comes off. Rug or leather work best for me.
IF YOU DON'T STAND BEHIND OUR TROOPS, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO STAND IN FRONT OF THEM.

Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everyone stands around reloading.

IMO the best rest material is one that you can use to do final fine tuning for correct arrow flight and your desired point of impact. Other than that it is just something on your bow
