With Guru on this one, I have noticed little to no difference on the bows I have tried them on. Even on my louder bows, they did not make a difference. Just another gimmick if you ask me.

Don't wear camo but do have Limbsavers on my GameMaster II. They work if you need them.

I have a set on my metal riser bow, a noticeable  difference on that particular bow. Never saw the need to use them on my Bears or Hills.

Frank, I have, but now tend to use plaids and older style woodland camo. Never used limbsavers and didn't say they don't work.

  I do feel that a proberly tuned bow and a reasonable weight arrow set-up will be quiet! It seems like people sometimes try to "bandaid" a set-up or won't take the time, quick fix.

  As far as being new, Pearson used mercury capsules on their bows for a time.

  Me, I would rather spend that money on arrows or better yet, save it to someday purchase one of your Fine Knives. Good shootin, Steve

They work for some and not for others-that the way most things work(or don't).   I don't find them that ugly---not as ugly as say a nice wooden recurve with a bowquiver full of carbon arrows.
