Bowtech seems to think theywork enough to notice.They do work but you will need a chronograph to find the sweet spot.

usein a chronograph to find the sweet spot isnt going to be a prob i have one. i got one along time ago from a friend who used it to chrono his paintball gun. so if it does help i can do the work that not a problem.

As Newman1 said, you've got to find the sweet spot and the proper amount of weight to add. To do it right it normally takes hours of shooting through the chrono.

Also, the 'type' of weight added at the sweet spot can actually make a bow more quiet.
