The company say's to place o-rings on the bottom of the rods that hold the springs. Good Luck.

I just fixed that on my g/f's bow. In her case it wasn't the springs vibrating so much as the launcher arm. I put a bit of thin, adhesive backed fleece in where the arm drops down so that it can't vibrate after the shot. It works beautiful.

So was hers for about a year then it just suddenly started twanging. I had the whole thing apart and couldn't find anything wrong but if you plucked the string "twangggk".

I bought my bow in '03, had the DZ since then too. Still no problems. The only thing I had to do was replace the rubber sleeve since I wore it out.
