Default Diamond Marquis ????

I recently purchased a Diamond Marquis and I wanted some input from everyone. Are the factory limb silencers better then limb savers solid limb silencers or which works better.

Come on guys im not trying to be controversial. Im really trying to figured this out. I just have an extra set of limbsavers for solid limb bows. And i dont know if i wanna keep the factory hush kit or use the SIMS limb savers.

Anyone with any input on this. I dont know how I cant remove the factory ones without a bowpress...and I dont wanna cut them off if they are worth keeping.

I thought my Marquis was real quiet with the factory set up. I'm not sure anyone will give you an answer, because noone has had tried what your asking.

I look at it like this......The extra set of limbsavers won't hurt in any way I can think of, so, if I had an extra set, I'd use them. How do you like your Marquis so far? I've really had a hankering for this bow since the first time I shot it last year....My tribute has been aweful good to though, lol.

Well I own the diamond marquis and 2 bowtech commanders. And all I can say is for the money bowtech and diamond are the best you can get. My diamond is fast even thought its 61# draw it still is fast 305fps with my 28.5" FMJ 400 with 100gr. field points. The diamond in my opinion is faster and quieter then my bowtech.

That really surprises me!I've shot my 70# tribute through a chronograph and it's only getting 289 fps. I too have a 28.5" DL. I knew they were quiet, but didn't think they were that fast....I'll definately have to look at it again! Thanks!

I mean unless my chrono is off..The marquis is a tad faster then my commander. I really think its whats on your bow and arrows. The Marquis Im using easton axis FMJ with a QAD drop away and no wrap on the arrow. And no factory hush kit on the string. Just cat whiskers g5 meta peep and string loop.
