Obviously he heard my bow and reacted....I wonder....do the hush puppy string silencers designed to wrap on the string where the string contacts the curve of the limbs silence the bow significantly...probably not enough for a high strung antelope but maybe enough for a relaxed whitetail????

Any extra grains of arrow weight will make it even quieter too.After that start looking at your fletching setup as those are often louder in the air than the bow 20 yards away inside a blind.My two cents.Thom
