Bob Lee recommends you dip the ends of the string in lacquer thinner to remove the wax and quiet things down, I know that I need to brace my Lee recurve a lot higher than they suggest and it likes a heavy arrow to get it to quiet down, it is real critical on brace height when it comes to noise.
Proverbs 12:27
The lazy do not roast any game,
but the diligent feed on the riches of the hunt.

I use a B50 string with wool at the ends (yes, even on a longbow) and wool silencers, 8" brace. Very quiet. The wool on the ends made a big difference.

OK RAISED THE BRACE UP TO 8 1/2" AND IT SHUT THE BOW BIG TIME.  I ALSO PUT LIMBSAVERS ON IT BEFORE I RAISED THE BRACE HEIGHT  I'M SURE THEY HELP! AND IT DOESNT HURT TO KEEP THEM THERE SO I'LL WORRY WHEN THEY FALL OFF. THANKS FOR ALL THE INPUT.

Matty, have a B.L. Sig. L/B also and there is only one time it got noisy, limbs were loose.  I had not checked them in a long time, run about 8" on B.H. with pair of W.W. (Quiet): My brother also has the same with string leaches and it is quiet, we both use B50.  Just a thought!
