you guys that say they dont work have never tried rhem or are putting them in the wrong place on the bow, I use them on all my bows even the quietest ones because they make them even quieter and take out the rest of what little vibration they have...as far as getting them off they will peel right off and do no damage to your bow...may not be pretty but they definetly do what they are intended to do.. if you put them to far out toward your limbtips they will make your bow shoot like crap and lose speed.

The recurve model is smaller and fits better on bows with narrow limbs.I use the bigger compound models except where I can't because of limb width.Since you are putting them near the riser where the limb does not move much the bigger ones don't hurt anything and might work a little better.Both kinds are chick magnets so watch out for the women once you install them.  :D

Is anyone putting somewhere other than the fadeouts?  What is your thoughts on these offering protection in the case of a dry fire?  Thanks...Mike

I think they are ugly as sin..... I have them on all my recurves. I have had a couple of dry fires. Broken nock and when I tried the mercury nocks. None ever damaged my bow.

Ssamac limbsaver makes "special" limbsavers for trad bows.  Nothing really special about them just smaller.  They also can be used as a form of a brush button

I've been shooting without them and tuning the bow little by little. If I can't get it dead in the hand I'm going to put them back again and see the difference. I can definitely say that they don't change how the bow shoots.

Thanks all
Sam
