Looks even better on the new River Runner. I cleared it back off the RER so I could play switchy switchy with the limbs on the RER. It may go hunting with me this fall on the River Runner.
I tried three different strings on the Holm Made River Runner trying to figure out what made it so quiet. Chad's string is just a hair short, but has Bow Hush and Hush Puppies on it which may take up a little length. It's dead quiet. I put an SBD 8-strand from a different 60" recurve on it that has no string silencers at all yet. Still dead quiet. I can tell no difference between it and my 66", 33# D-type Mohawk.
I love my RER and it draws so easy with either set of limbs on it. Feels much lighter than it is. The River Runner somehow feels a bit heavier than it is,(I've check both several times on my digital scale). The River Runner is just inherently quiet. None of the 3 strings I tried on it had anything more than a dead "thump" and one of them had no silencers at all and I tried brace heights from 7 1/2" up to the 8 1/8 it braces at with Chad's string. Nothing I've tried on it produces the slightest "twang".
Yep. May have just found my hunting rig for this year.
