Duke:

That's a great review. The ONLY reason.....and I've been through the ringer on this one.......I switched from a WB.....is due, really, to the arrows I shoot, I guess. When my Radial X-Weaves (Carbon Force) are drawn across the black bristles.....they make a noise. It's discernable.....by me and ESPECIALLY (hint-hint) by those entities that hear better than I. If I utilized different arrows????? Who knows? I don't. I do know that my son's friend had some arrows that felt "coated" and they made NO noise in the WB.

I just switched because I wasn't willing to switch arrows. Your reasoning makes perfect sense, for you.

BTW.....Happy New Year, teammate, and congrats again on an outstanding year.
