T.R.U. Accelerator Balls (string)
 
Just looking throught the Cabela' s catalogue and saw
the Accelerator balls?
They are suppose to silence the string and add 12fps.
Has anyone used these or heard anything about them?

I have used them and they the string still had a slight buzz to them.

You really need a chrono and some time to get the right spot. I have never really had a speed increase with them. But did get them to only loose 2 to 3 fps.

I think it really depends on the bow and string setup. A string without weights already on it would benifit more.

Good enough advice for me!
I' m just looking throught the Cabelas catalogue as I' m going down there
this weekend. Since I live in Toronto going down to Cabelas shopping isn' t a regular thing and since I' ve never seen them before I thought I' d ask!!!

I figured you can' t go wrong with 12fps for $11.99.

Thanks Rack.

I use the accelerator balls for a couple years. I used a chrono and was able to get 5 - 7 fps and they quited the string. That was on a 2 cam bow. I have purchased 3 single cam bows and did not gain any speed with them. I also tried the spider speed balls and after about 10 shots I noticed a wear spot showing up on my new winners choice strings I removed them ahd deposited them in the trash, I kepted the balls. I have heard from several others that some get a little speed increase and some don' t. Mark

I shoot a Parker UL31 solo cam and put one ball on the bottom and gained 4 fps.
