I love the MeanV suppressor I've got. Beautiful camo job, custom fit, and it works like a charm. I can see one on whatever bow I own even if they have their own version.
Regardless of who thought of the concept first, it is a great product that has take the idea close to perfection.

I've got one on my Tribute. Awesome product and the best string suppressor on the market IMO. Fit and finish is impeccable too and the matching camo looks like it was made by Bowtech. Dan was a professional to deal with and my goofy airhead wife(I luv you dear, but really sometimes......well) mailed him CASH!!! WTF was she thinking?????
BTW; Henry Ford got the car rolling but it took Chevrolet to perfect it. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.[8D]

Atlas,
As somebody who has owned BOTH the original STS and the MeanV Custom Supressor, I think I am qualilfied to compare the two.
I had a front mount STS on my Hoyt and I had nothing but problems with it. First, the rod was not the correct size, so I had to get out my hacksaw and cut it down. Then the small set screw that attached the rod wouldn't stay put. The screw would loosen and the rod would move. So I had to use Loc Tite to get it to function. Finally, I had to buy a smaller stabilizer because the big mounting block changed the balance of my bow slightly. Also, since the rod attached to the mounting block off to the side of the riser instead of inline like the MeanV, there was a slight tourque force applied to my bow every time the string hit the suppressor. I could feel my bow wanting to twist a bitin my hand every shot. Not to mention, the original STS with it's mounting block and all black color looked like crap on my bow.
I sold my Hoyt and got a new bow with a rear mount stabilizer hole to accomodate the Mean V suppressor. I measured, ordered, and installed the MeanV with no trouble. I didn't have to do any cutting, I didn't need lock tite, and it WORKED BETTER. The suppressor is in line with the riser, so there is no torque like there was on the original STS. And the custom camo finish looks flawless. It looks like it was installed at the factory. Not only does the Mean V look better, it WORKS MUCH better than the "Original".
I remember the inventor of the original STS saying on Archerytalk that MeanV's design would never work because all of his "testing" said that the mounting block was necessary. He said that Mean V's design would result in stripped threads. That has NOT happened. I've had mine for over a year and I've fired thousands and thousands of shots with ZERO problems.
I've owned both, and there is NO comparison. MeanV's is hands down a better product. It works better, it looks better, and it's priced more attractively considering what you get for the money.
So am I wrong to not use the original STS, when the Mean V looks and works so much better?
