Default Limb Saver

I been having a problem with the Limb Saver Stealth Series. I will be shooting my bow and out of the blue the bottom saver will fall off. The whole thing dosn't fall apart, just the rubber dampener will fall. Has anyone experinced this before, or know what is causing this?

How long have you had them on there? They are supposed to seperate from the base when they are worn out. I have never seen or heard of them falling off on randon occasions. What are you using to reattach them?

Both sets were on my bow for two days before they fell off. I can't find the most recent one. It is gone.

what you might need to do is tie a small serving like a peep sight above and below each leech this will pinch the string a lttle tighter on the leech so they won't fall off.

I don't think he meant "leech" .

Unless the product is defective you may have accidentally smudged the limb with your fingers after cleaning it and the adhesive just didn't take . Try to reattach it with some fresher adhesive or return it .

I actually contacted the company to see what could be happening. The sales manager Bob called me back right away. He told me that I might have placed them right on the flex point of the limb, and to move it a quater of an inch in any direction. He also sent me a new set at no coast. Sims Vibration Laboratory has great costumer service. Thanks to all who responded and all your thoughts.

Yup, Sims has great customer service. I had a limb saver that fell off after 50 shots and Sims sent me 4 new adhesive discs at no charge.

Excellent customer service as I had similar problems a year or two back. They not only sent me the replacement piece I needed but also a new set of limbsavers as well.
