Surprised it hasn't already been said, but the quietest bow I've ever shot was an all osage, 3 piece t/d Pronghorn by Herb Meland.  I've got a Griffin that's quiet, but my buddy's Pronghorn just puts every other bow to shame!  Maybe he got lucky, dunno... It's the only Pronghorn I've ever shot, but if they're all like that...wow!

knowing all the variables.  When I got my Howard Hill from Craig, I was really impressed with the first few arrows,  My wife was 15 yards away in the yard and looked up on the first arrow, because all she heard was the arrow hit the bag.

MOHAWK....  I have shot straight limb and string follow bows that were not as quiet.  It is the fastest D-shaped bow I have shot as well.
