My Rose Oak is very quiet, but Assenheimer bows are as quiet a bow as I have ever shot. Mike

In spite of buying and trying lot's of bows I have yet to find a recurve that is whisper quiet. The best I've found was a 64" one-piece Blacktail. Others that were not bad were a  62" Robertson Montana Falcon a older 66" Brackenbury, a 62" 1970 Howatt Hunter and 62" Bruin Master. In the acceptable range was a 66" Assenheimer, and a second 64" Blactail. All were older bows that were B-50 String.

Martin Serengeti, Pittsley Predator, Bob Lee. All 3 were very quiet, I give the Predator #1 out of the 3.

Names that seem to keep coming up are:
Assenheimer
DAS
Whisperstick

I'm going to buy a one piece recurve real soon and pretty much decided on an other Blacktail but was also looking at DAS and Whisperstick. I really like the looks of the Whisperstick and after doing a search and reading all the rave reviews and comments I might just go with a Whisperstick. I need to get my hands on one first so I can try it out. The grip is very important to me

Charlie Lamb Sunbear & a Zipper Extreme.  Lucky enough to have both, and they are dead quiet.
