Is it just me?????
How many people just love to hear the "twang" of a bowstring?????
Now don't get me wrong folks.....I do everything I can to get my bows "dead silent" for hunting season. But when I'm just "shooting",I just love to drop the string and listen to the THUUUMMMMMMMMMM.....

Does anyone take the silencers off after the hunting season?????
I LOVE Beaver Balls,They look COOL!!!!! and I usualy leave them on once I put them on the string.
However.....The rubber "cat-wiskers" probly work better than anything else. I just HATE the look of those dang ugly rubber things wiggleing around on my bowstring. I usualy take them off after the hunting season and shoot "ala-barestring" untill the next season rolls around.

I use Whoolie Whispers, which dampen the string a little. I, too, like to hear the humm of the string. In fact, if my string doesn't make just the right humming noise at release, it's usually an indication that I've done something wrong. It's quietest, of course, when one does everything right. Love to hear that barely audible hummmmmmmmmmm.
