Well, if your reason is so it matches your bow go for it, but make sure your purse is in Mossy Oak too

Actually, I think a string suppressor custom fit to my bow would be sweet. Then even I couldn't screw up settingit up.
Really
Not after a few tries.

I went with the Meanv, mostly because of the way they look. I'm sure the STS functions fine. However, the ones that I have seen look like some kind of a strange after thought. The Meanv looks like a part of the bow! Not to mention, they work real well also.

I have a Hoyt bow, so I ordered the new side mount STS. Looks cleaner when installed. I will let you know how it works when it arrives.

Forgive my ignorance, but what exactly does a string suppressor do and why do you need one?

It's been a few years since I had a compound and I'm out of the loop

I have a meanV suppressor, I liked the looks of it, and the way it fits. But whatever route you go believe me, they make a big difference.... or atleast it did in my case, i didnt have any silencers at all on my string before, i just added the suppressor and now i dont even need anything on the strings.

The adjustability to switch to different bows would be nice too, but ill probably be keeping mine a while.

I guess its another one of those gadgets that makes your bow heavier!

Seriously I to don't know what they do?

If youve ever watch a bowstring in slow motion, it's crazy what they do, the suppressor stops it, thus said to be less noise, vibration, and shock.
Worked for me!

Watch the string.
