Default RE: Stabilizer question

As I stated before, a stabilizer WILL NOT quiet a noisy bow. Even the rubber segmented stabilizers will not eliminate bow noise. Shock when the arrow is released starts at the tips of both limbs and travels from the tips to the center line of the bow or grip area through the limbs, string and cables and will continue to do so until all the shock from the release is expended. Proper tuning and additional mass arrow weight will reduce noise in most bows. Many of today's short axle to axle or speed bows have inherent problems with limb pocket noise that can not be eliminated totally. A stabilizer will do just that, stabilize the bow arm for a steadier shot and help reduce vibration, not noise after the shot.
