Default RE: Limb Savers

Nothing against Limb Savers (never tried them myself), but I will say a little tuning can go a long way. I haven't tried limb saversbecause I don't need them--I us a single set of cat whisker silencers on my string, and get lots of comments on how quiet my bow is.

I start with a "naked" string, and get it shot in. Then I tinker with the brace height and look for the spot with the least vibration and noise. Once I find that "sweet spot", Imeasure it and make a note. Then I tie my cat whiskers around the string (not through it) so they can be adjusted if needed. I start out at the 1/3 points on the string, then shoot some more, moving them 1" or less at a timeup or down the string if needed.

Haven't found a bow I couldn't calm down like that. Also, I don't shoot tiny strings or light arrows, even for tournaments. I shoot the same set up at tournaments as I do for hunting--so far it works just fine.
