I just got a new string put on my bow and it is way too loud. I dont know what kind of string it is. They just gave me what they had in stock. I dont know if name brand matters, but with the same poundage setting and the same string leeches it is louder. Its always been kinda loud but now its way too loud what can I do? Its loud enough now to echo when shooting in the backyard.
In addition to Art' s speculation, let me add that maybe they bent your riser in the bowpress. []Jus' pullin' your leg. I don' t have much faith in bowshops and have not for many years.
The bow came with the big limbsavers on the limbs. Would it help if I put more on it? Can you use more than 1 set? I also have a big rubber stabilizer that seemed to cancel some noise when I put it on. Will the string stretch and quiet down?
If your bow was' nt loud before the new string,I would take it back to the shop and find out why it is now.Why put a lot of things on the string to make it quiet.Chances are they put the wrong string on it.

Huntmaster, if the bow is loud because the string is too long now (as I suspect), it' s going to be even worse when the string does stretch out. And you' re draw length will be too long. And your draw weight will fall off. And you could start slapping your wrist with the string. And about a half dozen other things... ALL bad.
Thanks guys. The string may be too long. I think my cams are rotating farther forward now that you mention it. But I didn' t make note of where they were before just trying to remember. This thing sounds like its about to blow apart and I' ve got to do something. I didn' t hunt this year and I try to shoot every day so I can hunt next year. I' m good enough on a range when I concentrate but dont think I could hit the ground reliably when a deer is there. BTW is it possible to wear a bow out?
Arthur how do you improperly use a press so it bends? How can you tell it is bent if it is bent slightly. I have had some pretty bad shops/stores put my bow in a press because I didn' t want to drive all the way to a good pro shop. What do I look for so no one makes a mistake.
HELP... My bow sounds like a rifle
