I truly, honestly, sincerely hope you didn' t take my response as negative because that was in no way, shape or form supposed to be taken sarcastically!

A few years back a company called Sims Vibration Labratories introduced a product called Limbsavers which was made of a soft yet somewhat durable, supple rubber called NAVCOM (same stuff used in aluminum baseball bats to keep vibration from rattling your teeth loose). These were made to adhere to the underside of your bow limb or between the split on a split limb bow and were primarily used on compounds. They were supposed to reduce a very high percentage (like 50% + I believe) of vibration and hand shock as well as help protect from the damages of dry firing. And unlike most products whose company claim amazing results from using their product, these things WORK!!! Almost overnight, everyone on the compound circuit had them and Sims understandably expanded their line (even if some of the products don' t seem very useful) and now have traditional Limbsavers for recurves and longbows, as well as mini-savers for bolt on accessories (quivers, stabalizers, etc.), some type of knobby looking wrap that the only person I have ever seen use was Ted Nugent wrapping it around his quiver hood, string leeches (their version of the string silencer), recoil pads for firearms and a few other things that I really can' t remember. But like I said these things work wonders and are one of the few accessories that is so simple, you kinda slap yourself and say " why didn' t I think of that."

Now you know what limbsavers do
