String stops are great for adding some forgiveness and quiet the bow down Considerably!! It stops the string dead in spot, which eliminates alot of noise and string oscillation which can cause a bit of vibration and slap issues. Overall a great investment

I think they are one of the best bow add-ons in the last decade...

String stops work for sure, but they aren't designed to help you shoot better. They are designed to help reduce noise & vibration. If its your shooting that needs improvement, the string stop won't help much in that dept. If you decide to get one, MeanV has a great one, I really like mine.

I also can recomend the Fuse Stealthshot. Good quality and easy to set up.

The Limbsaver Decelerator works good for me.
