Default RE: Need help deciding on string surpressor

Sorry,I don't like or care for any string suppressers.They all make a "thump",and in my opinion,transfer vibration directly into the riser.Think about it,all of a sudden,all these bows "have" to have them.To me,I feel it's an design flaw that makes them a manufactors gimmick.Even though I don't shoot a Mathews,they have the only one that I would say is worthwhile.My new Katera XL,after shooting a couple hunderd shots though it,I removed the string suppressor,and with a pair of the right cat whiskers,it's much quieter,no hand shock,just a pleasure to shoot.As a matter of fact,it's quieter than my 07 Commander.I'm not trying to start anything,just my opinion.
Everyone makes choices...Bob
