Sound and vibration elemenation? Also quivers?

So I'm shooting a fred bear element w/ 28"draw, 63 pounds. The bow is fast, it shoots well. My only complaint is that it seems to be a little on the loud side and it seems to have a lot of hand shock. I installed limbsaver ultras and that seemed to help a little, and I also have "Cat Puffs" on my string. Maybe I'm crazy but I think it has a lot to do with my quiver. I'm using a 2 peice quiver. What are your thoughts?

I'd probably remove the quiver and fling a few to see if that was the case.

It really depends on the quiver. There are some great ones and some crappy/noisy ones.

I have a 2 piece Hoyt quiver on my Trykon XL and it is as quiet on as when it is off the bow.

One thing you may look into is ensuring the quiver has arrows in it when you are shooting. On some designed the internal foam inserts will rattle when there are no arrows in the quiver.

They do make limb savers for accessories. Also, u might want to think of a string suppressor. I've just ordered one for by Bowtech Tribute. They are custom made by a guy in Ill. I posted a thread here earlier regarding a sts & the majority of people recommended having one. They go for roughly $35-45.
