its a rubber dampener on the end of a rod that is screwed into the hole opposite you stabilizer and when your bow is at rest the rubber dampener is about a sheet of papers thickness/distance from your string. when you shoot the bow the string hits the dampener. what this does is:

POSSIBLY gain a minute amount of speed

Reduces noise and vibration by a huge margin

Produces a cleaner arrow release

and in some cases of people shooting too long of draws it will help prevent arm slappage...

I made one for my bow and used a sound decible meter to test my bow with and without.

its uses a actual replacement rubber stopper on the end.

sound difference is 1 or 2 decibles but the shock and vibes when shooting vanished. So much more smoother to shoot than before.
