RE: To kiss or not to kiss, that is the ?

I useda kisserfor awhile - years ago when I first started shooting - but I prefer to use the nock in the corner of my mouth. Same resultas the kisser with no loss of speed.

Im with you on this one. I do the same thing. That way we have more excuses for a bad shot

. Actually havent made a bad shot in years since i went to both.

I use one along with a peep. It just helps give me the piece of mind of having a solid anchor everytime.

it...slows the bow down 9fps along with other accessories

Really??? Not that I don't believe you. Just surprised.

Well on my bowtech commander jacked to 71# my bow with the stock brass knock and the rubber button to show the factory knock point brings the bow down to 303FPS and with a kisser it averages 293fps which sucks....so i removed it and took off the factory string silencers and put cat whiskers on cables and string seem to be getting 305FPS...so i dont know if its based on the bow and let off but i know i lost speed with my kisser.

I find it really hard to believe that cat whiskers are faster than the Hush Kit silencers. BUTIFYou want the ultimate speed out of that Commander? Use one rubber button for a kisser.(optional) Tie a loop on instead of the brass. (that's wheremost of the weight was, not the kisser. Take the whiskers and the hush kit off and buy a Mean V. You will be suprised. I had my Commander zippin and she was dead quiet. Good luck.

Oh and for me, obviously I use the rubber stock button for a kisser, center the string in my nose, and barely touch my top vane with my lip. That is when the universe is in line for me on my 101.

No kisser.
I also anchor with the nock / loop / release at the corner of my mouth, tip of nose touches string.
High anchor causes front sight to have to be set lower, but I still have a 60 yard pin.
Sight housing is in alignment with peep at full draw.
