There plenty of information about everything archery related in the search engines... If this were the case, then any question on a forum should be replied to with the answers above. Archery should be inclusive, even with simple questions. I shot a really nice pronghorn buck and a mule deer buck this fall. Neither heard or were bothered by the clicker. Mule deer bucks at 15 yards are prime candidates to be bothered by the click, not the case for either animal or ones in past years when I use a clicker. I don't tape or bother with mine, I just put them on and go don't sweat it.
