Frank, a wise old Comanche once told me, "If a man tells you he's the chief in his own tipi, he will lie about other things as well." <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
My most radical silencing method is to increase arrow weight to 9 grains per pound. It will quiet down a loud bow. It will make a quiet bow scary.
