Llama hair makes really good silencer material. Lots of natural oils and it is light weight and resilent. With siccors in hand..."here llama, llama....

I love the way they silence a bow, but I gave up on them this year, which could be called the year of the stick-tight. They do NOT shoot out. Rather the yarn puffs turn into little balls of burrs. I went back to rubber cat whiskers for my hunting bows...not as quiet, but water and burr proof.

BTW: Jason isn't builing the Kabakona River bows anymore. He builds and sells his own bow, the Kanati. I just got mine a couple weeks ago and I love it!
Kanati 58" 44# @ 28" Green glass on a green riser
Bear Kodiak Magnum 52" 45# @ 28"
Bodnik Slick Stick longbow 58" 40# @ 28"
Bodnik Kiowa 52" 45# @ 28"
Kanati 58" 46# @ 28" R.I.P (2007-2015)
Self-made Silk backed Hickory Board bow 67" 49# @ 28"
Bear Black Bear 60" 45# @28"

Correct - Jason no longer makes the Kriver, but will have to do until I order my new Kanati!!!

I might have to switch back, we have quite a few burs around here too...
