Replace the rubber.....What condition is the string in where it hits the stealthshot? How close is the rubber to the string? Is the string staying enclosed in it, or bouncing out?

Double check EACH and every bolt on that bow.....Cams included......It honestly sounds like something has come loose. Do you shoot w/ a quiver on? If so, 1 piece or 2? I have a 2 piece, and if I shoot it w/out arrows in it, it's considerably louder than when it's full....

Oh, one more thing. Check the limbs. Make sure one of them isn't cracked. I've not seen a Hoyt limb break, but it's not out of the realm of possibility.

Install a SIMS everything. I did and I'm shooting silent now.

Did you have to send the bow in to get the new rubber(stealthshot) end?
I was told you had to send the bow back in to get it replaced. If not where did you get the rubber end?
