it shoots great but a deaf dear will here it come from 10 yards away :(

hmmmmm......somebody's fishing, I think.......What the heck, I'll answer anyway. Simms Limbsavers. Simms AlphaShox, and Simms S-Coil stabilizer. That's gonna help as much as it can be helped.

actually im going fluke fishing tommorow if thats what you mean...

RE: loud bow
 

I have the PSE Nova myself. I added Limbsavers and an S-coil stabilizer and it's pretty quiet. Don't know about the "alphashox" the other guy mentioned, but I'm guessingit couldn't hurt.

RE: loud bow
 

alphashox are only for split limbs aren't they? The nova has solid limbs.

How many grains per pound pull are you shooting? A heavier arrow makes for a quieter bow.

RE: loud bow
 

Yes, my bad. I meant to say StringShox....sorry.

RE: loud bow
 

Sorry, I didn't even know what alphashox were til I just looked it up. You are correct, they won't work on our Novas (Novi?). I shoot 70lb. draw weight, but I'm not sure of the grains/lb. Right now I shoot XX75 aluminum arrows 31" long with 100 grain points. (Switching to carbon arrows next week). I'm not sure how much arrow weight affects noise, but I know the additions I mentioned definately quieted my Nova down from it's "naked" setup.
