who does not use string silencers?
 

I was just curious who here does not use string silencers on their hunting bows? I have always used one kind or another myself but I know a guy that thinks they are totaly unecessary IF you shoot a fairly quiet bow already. I guessa whitetail will always hear the bow and the thinking is that he will react the same unless it is very load. I can respect that thinking even though I still use them. I may add a string suppressor later and not use the silencers then. What do you all think about not using string silencers?

I don't have any on my 82nd.

I took them off of my Allegiance after installing an STS.

With some form of string suppressor, I don't find them necessary.

I dont use any string silencers, I have a MeanV suppressor, and believe me, If you get a string suppressor, you'll never wanna shoot a bow without one.

I have the stocksuppressors on my Truth 2. No Limbsavers or anything on the string (except the peep and D-Loop).

I don't have any on my hoyt vectrix at all

RE: who does not use string silencers?
 

I don't have any on my Marquis that came with a short stop(Bowtech's string supressor) and It's whisper quiet. I Believe that silencers are not needed with a suppressor installed.

STS, no string silencers / leeches.

RE: who does not use string silencers?
 

None on my Marquis. Cat whiskers on both trad bows.

RE: who does not use string silencers?
 

I dont have any on my Hoyt, but I think I will be getting some kind of suppressor in the future.

RE: who does not use string silencers?
 

None on my old glory,they slow the string down,I use an sts.

RE: who does not use string silencers?
 

I do, bowtech hush kit style which are junk, putting catwhiskers on this weekend,but am thinking of looking into a supressor...

RE: who does not use string silencers?
 

My Mathews comes with supressors no need for silencers.

I havent shot string silencers in the last 6-8 years...I just bought a new bow at the begining of this year and it has a mean v supressor and I dont think it needs it!!!!

RE: who does not use string silencers?
 

I don't have any string silencers, I have a suppressor, but I think I am going to add the limbsavers to my limbs this weekend. I want to quiet her down a little more.

RE: who does not use string silencers?
 

+1. None needed on my Marquis either.

RE: who does not use string silencers?
 

I have a MeanV on my Hoyt Lazertec....nothing but the best

RE: who does not use string silencers?
 

I use a meanv with no string attachments.

RE: who does not use string silencers?

X2

RE: who does not use string silencers?
 

I have no silencers on my Mathews. I read somewhere that every addition like that slows your bow down (ie. string silencers 1-2fps, eye peep tube 1-3fps, etc...);)

RE: who does not use string silencers?
 

Ok thanks for the replies, just wondering.

RE: who does not use string silencers?

none on my GTO or 101st

RE: who does not use string silencers?
 

I have an STS. No need for the silencers in my opinion.
