Check out this STS
 

There is a guy on ebay selling these he custom cuts the rod to your bow. Looks interesting and a lot more compact than the regular sts

no cable slide??? doesn't it wear-out your bus cables?? it does look sweet, but i would like a cable slide!

RE: Check out this STS
 

The cable slide is up farther, not in the picture walt. You'll catch on some day. You'll get it don't worry.

once again, if you're not going to say anything intelligent don't say anything at all.
thanks.

Just trying to tell you where the cable slide is on a new bow. It's usuallyabove the wood handle.If you look at where the cables cross at the topof thepicture, thats where the cable slide is....ok buddie.

It was nice of you to be concerned for the guy though. You'll catch on walta couple more years of experiencewill do it.

well tschammel, i already thought of that... remember, i'm the critical thinker of the two of us!
now, i have never seen a manufacture make two seperate ports for a cable slide. yes, you are correct that some of the manufactures have gone to above the grip, but many still use the below the grip placement for the cable slide. if a manufacture does indeed place the slide above the grip they do not still put a port below.
nice try, but please refer to my former post.
thanks.

RE: Check out this STS
 

Im sorry but your wrong walt. That extra port is not there for a cable slide, it's there specificaly for a sts. Like I informed you already the cable slide goes up where the cables come close together (NOT IN THE PICTURE). Plus I think we all know if you shot your bow without a cableslide on your cables, it would almost be imposible. Your cables would be where your arrow would be, It just wouldn't work. Most bows are starting to give this option now walt. You'll catch on, you just wait, give it time.

RE: Check out this STS
 

that's funny, because i just left schaffers and every bow that had the cable guard above the grip didn't have this port you speak of... maybe you are thinking of the port used for the stabalizer... tim, that port is on the other side.
look, i know that your dad has done everything for you your whole life and you haven't really ever needed to pay close attention to your set-up, but there was a time when there was no such thing as cable slides, just cable guards. long story short, yes it is posible to not have a cable slide.
thanks

RE: Check out this STS
 

Next time we shoot, your taking your cable gaurd off and shooting an arrow. Then I get to watch and call you a big dumb a$$.

Oh....did you find that special release at Scaffers that helps you get rid of your trigger slap. You should order one if not, you got to get rid of that bad habbit.

RE: Check out this STS
 

read it again tim, i said cable slide not cable guard...
and your should be you're.
thanks.

RE: Check out this STS
 

God....do you realize how stupid you sounded there. "looks sweet, but I would like a cable slide!"You'll catch on Walt....Just give it a while...You'll get this bow hunting stuff sooner or later. But for now just get that trigger slap figured out....Ok.

RE: Check out this STS
 

no. not really
you must be as bad a reader as you are a writer?
thanks

RE: Check out this STS
 

It seems like that would also tip you off to changes in tiller as well. If your string no longer touches the STS or develops a "bend" your bow has become out of tune. Yet another benefit of the STS!

I gotta get one of these things.

RE: Check out this STS
 

Walt, your bus cable doesn't touch the STS at all. Only your string touches the STS. The bushing on the after part of your bow below the grip is for a STS. Meanv2 also make them in most camo patterns. They look very sharp and the feedback on them is that they are better made then the current STS.
Can't we all just get along

RE: Check out this STS
 

Here is a picture of two bows with the sts sytem installed. The sts goes in the port below the handle. Has nothing to do with the bus cable. Two fine looking bows if I might add

I agree the camo ones look awesome

RE: Check out this STS
 

this is probablya dumb question but what is the purpose of an sts?

RE: Check out this STS
 

Eliminates alot of string noise and vibration. Some people say that you can remove your string silencers / cat whiskers and pick up speed.

RE: Check out this STS
 

its a rear stabilizer mounting hole - they have been on bows since before the sts utilized them - except for hoyt.

i'm curious which bows still come with the cable slide below the grip.
