Default String add on weights

How much do eliminator butons and crimp-on brass rings weigh?

Default RE: String add on weights

I don't know what things like that weigh, but I have done chrono checks and removing a brass nockset (used to use two of them) and using a tied on one made from serving gained 4fps. Just for giggles I put it back on the string and lost that 4 fps.

Now figure some guys have as many as 5 of them on the string and they're robbing themselves of 15-20 fps right there. Then wonder why their bow doesn't shoot faster.
