Is a String supressor such as the STS worth puting on your bow.
I have seen a lot of guys with them. Just wondering what you guys that have had or
do have them right now thought of them.

I have one on my XTec (STS), but I may be taking it off when I change stabilizers. I don't think it's going to fit with the new configuration.
The newer Hoyt's have them on the bow when you buy them. At least some models do. Most newer bows are also drilled and tapped to accept one straight out the back rather than a front mount like I have. The front mounts aren't the cleanest looking in my opinion.
I may be selling mine. If I do and you're interested I'll make you a good deal on it. It has been cut down so I'm not even sure if it will fit on your bow.
It quiets it some. All you hear is the string hitting the rubber instead of hearing an occillating string so the noise is much shorter in duration. I think the type of noise is less distruptive in the peaceful forest. Just my $.02 worth.

I recently bought a Diamond Black Ice and returned it after I found it just wouldn't settle down and shoot. The experts at the club told me all the stuff they did to get theirs to shoot and it was normal. I felt it was new and should shoot well right out of the box. I returned it for a PSE Mossy Oak X and have never been happier. My friend Dave shot it and went out and relaced his with a PSE Dream Season X Force ( he had to get the next better of course) and he's not frustrated anymore.
