I was talking about handshock.........not re-coil ! "A lot" is not the right word maybe..........but more than I would have expected out of a VFT style bow !
I think we are on the same page just different terms.
But now that you mention it........I think the vibra-blocks were all the way up by the limb pockets ! If they are farther back up the limb......does it make much of a difference ??
Yes. I did a little experimenting last night and there is a noticeable buzz/change in pitch as the vibrablocks are moved down towards the limb pockets.
We must have been watching the same TV show cause I seen that too and did experiment on my BK.
We must have been.
could you please tell me what the settings on the vibrablocks, could or may have on the speed of the bow if any, it appears when a bow is test shoot they have nothing on them but an knocking point?
I have not tested to see if moving the vibrablocks up and down the limbs have any effect on speed though my guess, initially, would be "no" and if they do then it would be insignificant....1-2 fps tops. Heck, Bowtech advertises a 3-5 fps speed loss with the entire hush kit installed and my guess is that those 3-5 fps are mostly from the squidees on the string/cable.
Yes, most companies use a tied-in nockset to test the speed rating for their bows. Bowtech has a nice little chart in the owners manual that clearly explains expected speed loss due to various string accessories, changes in arrow weight, etc....
just got to read all of the replies to this message. Man, I figured my comment and CBM's would cause some commotion in the Bowtech faithful crowd here
I think a vast majority of the Bowtech crowd realize that no bow is perfect and can thus accept some of the potential deficiencies for their particular model. That is one of the reasons they probably choose to shoot them in the first place......having the intelligence and understanding to understand compound bow technology and design.
...at least in my case....
