Dressing Up My Whisper....
« on: February 13, 2015, 05:38:00 PM »



She's still Plain-Jane Green, but I put a green and black string (From Traditional Lines) and red beaver silencers from Kustom King. Just in time for Valentines day!

Looks good Roger, after talking with you in Kalamazoo, and shooting the whispers Steve had at the show, you had me really thinking hard on one.  So far I've been able to restrain myself.

Red beaver?  You are out of control.  Who would ever have thought of such a thing.

Actually looks quite pretty

Ron...I prefer the Whisper. I think it is the grip more than anything.  They are both very easy to shoot though.  I  don't know arrow speed, but the compound guys in my league  are amazed at the quickness.  My arrows are just about 625 grains

Roger and Ron, where are you running for brace on your Whispers?  I just picked up a new-to-me Whisper and still tweaking the tune.  Love it!

Yep. Me, too. Just a fuzz over 7". The Whisper is well named. It is remarkable how quiet my bow is with a heavy wood arrow.
