The quietest recurve today is a Black Sheep. A well known shooter just tested one with a 12 strand 8125 string, put the brace height all over the place and could not get it to make noise.

Last weekend at the Iowa Trad shoot, I let my friend shoot it for a round and not only did he say it was THE most impressive bow he had ever shot, he couldn't believe how quiet it was, even with 330 gr arrows!

The first comment I always get is how quiet it is.

Limbsavers at the fadeouts (they were on the limbs when I got them), maple/glass limbs and nothing on the string.

Bear's Paw classic recurve and Hummingbirds . Both have been very quite for me and I shoot 3 under . I do think the Bear's Paw may have been a little more quite that the hummingbird but both were good.

If you haven’t try a Border bow you can’t imagine what a trad bow can be

John --

They are made in the land of cheese and I think a run of them is about to be made.

CNC'd 21" Riser that takes ILF limbs.

Comes with a grip like the modern compounds....no torque. It has been out on a limited scale for quite awhile now. The guy who makes them was just getting a little feed back, before he started making more.

No special fittings or bushings, just click and go and scary quiet.

Hank can you tell us why that riser would be quieter with ilf limbs than all the others out there?Since it is useing the same limbs as others how can it be quieter than all the others?  :confused:
....Quality deer management means shooting them before they get tough....

Assenhiemer, are not the fastest bows but both of mine are dead quiet, One is a 64" hunter and the other is 62", Don's bows are nice to look at an shoot really well for me and are reasonably priced. They work for me.
