Default what have u done to "customize" your bow?

I'm always tinkering w/my Tribute, adding this & that. I've got sims vibration accessories on alot of the bow, sight, stabilizer, quiver.I've noticed a slight vibration in the riser, towards the limbs, when I flicked it w/my finger. So I took a pair of Sims split limb shock absorbers & worked it into the top & bottom slot in the riser; they fit perfectly. Went out andshot it, & what do you know,even moresilent. absolutely nothing.
So what have you all done to your bows that we could use to upgrade/improve our bows?

I always add moleskin to any place that my arrow could possibly make contact. Other than that, I try to keep accessories on my bow to a minimum.

custom red and black strings with a matching red/black wrist sling.

camo felt anywhere my arrow might touch, including the under side of my sight housing.

I usually make a leather grip for my bow, it looks good and keeps my hand warm. I made antler grips for one a couple years ago.
