"snap" noise on my new Bear T/D
« on: August 14, 2014, 11:37:00 PM »
It's a very obvious randum noise comming out of the top limb latch. Any suggestions?  Thought about just shooting a little Rem. oil in the socket.

Try a little string wax on the locator pin and the leather pad on clasp. Worked for me at least. You can also do a search that will show what others have done.

Also, mine wasn't a 'snap'
More of a slight 'creak'

The noise is because of a small, really small, movement in the limb pocket. I used some silicone spray from the local hardware store on mine and it is silent now.

String wax on the pin and pad worked for me.
