Default 2006 Bowtech Tribute..which STS brand to use?

Which STS type of string suppressor would you guys put on my Tribute? I have a new Vectrix and I like what the stealthshot that comes on the bow does for noise, vibration, and prevention of arm slap. I want this type of technology on my Tribute. Advice please.
Thanks,
Don

Hey Don, I put the rear mounted STS single on my Tribute. Worked like a charm. Really quietened the bow down without any alteration to shot pattern.

Don,

Get ahold of MeanV over on AT. I'll be ordering one of his this summer.

Definitely get ahold of Dan Horton aka "MeanV2" ........IMO he has the nicest ones out there. (Dipped to match as well)
Very seamless/ factory looking vs the clunky look of the STS.

They do make a big difference on any bow for eating up string occilation. So much so that its almsot not a fair comparison to compare 2 bows where one has it and the other doesn't.

(You'll see )

Don I've got one from my Tribute I'll let you have cheap. It is the rear mount STS. Worked great on my Tribute. PM me if interested.

Mean V for sure. How can you beat custom made for your bow?

I have the MeanV one also. Way nicer build than the original STS because he custom makes them to your bow. Doesn't work any better mind you just looks like a factory OEM component.

Another vote for the Meanv CSS I have one on my Black Ice and the camo is a perfect match for the bow in fact it looks like it came with the bow
