any bow specific "tips" on quieting a buckmasters g2xl? didn't think it was to bad 'til i starting shooting with some who had bowtechs, they're pretty smooth and quiet! anyway, i have some vibration, removed all accesories possible and still have it??? i do have string leaches and limb savers in addition to the built in riser dampners. any buckmasters shooters?

    From what I have read on AT, it seems they only add 1-2 fps if that. They do seem to work though, much like mathews supressors up near the cams.

    we'll do the chrono thing this w/e. just got back from shooting after making some mods, it was the sight-coppper john-pretty "twangy" rest. added some boogie rigged rubber and it worked pretty good! may have to market the idea...

    hey shoff, chronied w/without sts-no noticeable difference either way. here is another odd situation i bought some quickspin arrows, they also flew 6-8" low. with only 2+ inch vanes weight not really an issue. must be contacting rest? thats why the wraps and vanes also shot much lower than my feathers? they should be spining my broadheads as fast as my offset feather, so thats probably not it? oh yea, with field points-fly same as feathers. thing is, can't see how/where contact could be....

    baby powder/foot spray, and quickspins are about 10 grains heavier then any other feather/vane out there.
