Moleskin on the limb tip over the string groove and/or wrapping the first 4-6 inches of the string near the loop with wool will quiet the string slap.  Good luck.

Longbow?..............Im joking. It could just be your ears tuning into something that has always been there? Honestly I dont do recurves so I dont have any other good advice for you, sorry. My younger cousin
