Still don't think that's where the noise comes from but figured it couldn't hurt.
It's quiet now but it took a lot of messing around to get it there. 10 strand D10 string, small cat whiskers and small hush puppies and I mean small only about 1/4 of what most folks use,10 gpp arrows and the main thing was brace height. It's still not as quiet as my Whippenstick Hellfire but it's very acceptable and am happy with it finally. I'd set the brace height at 8" and start talking 3 twist out at time and see what happens. I like mine as low as it will go and still be quiet. Mine is a 62" and I'd have to go measure it again but I want to say it's about 7 3/4" or maybe a hair lower.
I mentioned this in an other thread one time and some guys went off on me like I was talking smack about the Pope or something.
