Limbsavers on Guardian Limbs

Primitive Weapon · 08-18-2007, 05:19 PM

Has anyone tried putting the limbsaver gel pads that are made for the grip on the bottom of the limbs on your guardian?

Spoke to another guardian owner today and he swears by them and claimsthatthey quiet the limbs down alot.

He's got one on each limb where it starts to taper off. Any thoughts?

I just picked up my Guardian today. How much quieter do you want it?

i don't guess i have ever seen the pads you are talking about.

Mine is quiet as it is. I don't see how sticking those things on your bow can help much. Shoot side by side with the guy and see if it really does make a difference.

That would not be comparing apples-to-apples because we have different fall away rests &sights.

I do not shoot a guardian but it cant do nothing but HELP even if the bow is quiet. The product is exactly what its named LIMBsavers, they reduce vibration which in the long run IMO will save from possible disasters. I shoot actuall original limbsavers and will never own a bow without them no matter how noise/shock free the bow is! Just my 2cents worth!

I have the same mindset of you. This comment

really cracked me up.

I will admit, the Guardian is quiet but it is certainly not perfect. I feel the limbsaver, in theory, should help by reducing the vibration in the outer portion of the limbs.

I am curious to see if other Guardian owners, or any other bow owners have tried this.

ive tried every stabalizer out there and the bow is still so loud I can here a mouse fart in the next county, just kiddin

Take this test and see what you find out: remove all string suppresors, stabalisors, limb savers and have someone else shoot the bow while you stand next to them.

Then take any other bow on the market and shoot it fully setup.

the Bowtech was 8 decibals queiter than the Vectrix, Drenalin, and 18 decibals queiter than the X-Force. The other bows had silencers and STS installed and still couldnt beat a stripped down bowtech commander. The only noise comes from the rest and the arrows.

I installed a muzzy dropaway and it made the bow even quieter but it wont tune to vanes.

There isn't much that moves on the Guardian, how quite do you want it.. It's the quietest bow ever.
