String Silencers

[peter p]

I went out shooting my Wolverine and Exomax on the weekend. The Wolverine has string silencers on it with no dissapator pads and the Exomax has dissapator pads but no string silencers.
I noticed that the Wolverine was much quieter than the Exomax. The Exomax has a very loud vibration to it while the Wolverine is much quieter.
Everything on the Exomax is tight and I guess this is how they should sound but was wondering if string silencers would dampen the vibration a little.

Maybe but near impossible too keep on, the Wolverine is quieter do to the fact of a WOOD STOCK plus the lower poundage. Also bear in mind anything such as string silencers will take off a few FPS.

String silencers fuzz busters and tarantulas do nothing but look ugly after awhile on your string. Put dissapater bars on the Wolverine and it just whispers the shot at the target.

If your Exo is loud, concider a bit heavier projectile. They absorb more energy, and leave less to vibrate the bow.

I put the whole limb saver kit on my exomag last year, the limb dampeners, string leaches, and that little doohicky that goes on the piece of metal that holds your bolt down on the rail. After less than one hundred shots, the only thing that stayed on the bow was the piece on the hold down bar. When I contacted limb saver, The lady in customer service said that they were having some problems keeping them on high poundage bows such as the exomag and quickly offered my a refund. Instead, she sent me a recoil pad for Tyler's .243

They must do something. I notice Bill T has them on his Exomax on the excalibur home page.

Those aren't sound dampeners on Bill T's Exomax on the front page. It is where the FFF string is served back over itself and has frayed a little. My Exomax looks the same way.....

CaptainCharles,
look further down at the tip of the buffalo's horn and you will see what I'm talking about.

peter p, Bill does have fuzz busters on his Max, but if you blow the pic up you'll see its all bunched up in a ball. It did this on my emag and looks like sh**. Thats a brand new xbow he took to Africa to test the Emax before it went on the market, and Bill makes fuzz busters for the accessery package so he uses his own product.
