Hush Puppy placement
« on: September 27, 2016, 07:43:00 AM »
I ordered a set of Bow Hush and Hush Puppy silencers last week.  So until they arrive I was looking or your experiences so far as placement of the silencers on the string.
I usually start with the 1/3, 1/4 points...
Anything different with these?

Nope, nothing different for me. 1/3 and 1/4 works out well.

I initially tunes without silencers... but add them to fine tune and quiet the bow. Just use hush puppies on mine ("hybrid"), but right about 1/4 and 1/3 is the sweet spot. And very, very quiet.

I also trimmed 'em down a good bit, and could probably trim even more. There's a lot of wool in those puffs.

1/3rd on recurves and 1/4th on longbows.

Don't trim them too far to start with....they need to set....or the short lenghts you've created will fly out.

My girls thank you.....   :campfire:

Terry,
Any idea how far out for shipping now?
I know it was pretty backed up there or a while.

I might try just the Bow Hush first to see how that works.  Then add the Hush Puppies if needed.
I just hate the looks of LimbSavers, so I am trying to avoid them.

Terry,
Posting at 2:32 am?
I am glad to see that I am not the only one who gets awake like that.

Thanks....
