If you got the whole season riding on this, I don't see how that would be a big deal. Shaving the tree and hoping you get the right spot in the offseason seams like more of a hassle and risk. I like the fabric idea. And if putting bow wax there works, that sounds like its worth a try. There have been a few topics on this stick squeak thing, you would think somebody would have solved this by now
