What about the 82nd Airborne? Seems like a pretty fast bow compared to the Admiral/Captain.

You didn't ask about the fastest, you asked about the quietest. Although the 82nd is faster, the Guardian is quieter.

They can all be quiet if you set them up right. Even out of the box bows need to be set up.

I think before we get to many posts going here that anybody that can uequivically say what bow is the quietest should be able to prove that he has shot every make and model bow produced. Otherwisw the study is not complete and therefore could be biased.

Can anybody say that they've shot every bow made?

If we're trying to sound intelligent let us note that unequivocally is not spelled "uequivically." Furthermore, maddoggk asked for opinions (noun. a belief or judgment that rests on grounds insufficient to produce complete certainty). That being said, I believe it incorrect to assume that a "study" is being conducted or that he inquiring about the quietest bow is even looking for a definite answer.

And, I read once where there was a "scientific" study done with a decibel meter and the General actually won. I wish I could find that now but obviously that was of the 08 bows, today I don't know.
