Default Improving Hunting Setup

How else can I make my setup better for hunting? Any ideas? It shoots quite well and is relatively quiet (although you can never have too quiet). I thought of adding PSE limb bolt shock absorbers along with string leeches. What about the "speed balls"? Any ways I could increase my velocity more (dont know what its at now)?

PSE Nova
Draw Length: 29.5"
Draw Weight: 83#
Rest: Muzzy Zero Effect
Release: Zero Gap Caliper
Arrow: ICS Hunter 340 29.75"
Fletch: 4" Vane (AAE w/ right Helical)
Peep with tubing
Limb Savers
Doinker Hunter Stabilizer
Broadhead Muzzy 100gr

Thanks JDoyle

You think it is worth adding the NV system on top of the limb savers already installed? I think I will definitely add the leeches.

Arrowguy, I agree with JDoyle. The PSE NV system is a great addition to ANY bow. I have it and Limb Savers on my current bow, and will put them on my new bow (when I decide to buy) - it definitly calms the bow down and quiets the noise level as well.

The only thing I could suggest is to remove the peep and give the No-peep or Hind-Site or something like that a try; that should gain a little bit (5 fps)

Unfortunatly, being so close to the season, you might want to wait to try switching accessories....

Just my $0.02

Jim.

The tubing on the peep is responsible for noise. Want more quiet? Get rid of the tubing.

I'd also recommend using a peep w/o the tubing...other than
that, looks like you're all set<img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle>.

I agree...get rid of the tubing. The other day at the range I noticed that the tubing wasnt needed, the peep stayed align without it. So I removed it and was suprised how much quieter it was.

AH
