VTbowman Posted September 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 Re: XT holding a XT....!!! [ QUOTE ] Very sharp. Just currious whey you mounted the S-Coil on the inside? [/ QUOTE ] The mini is short enough to mount on the inside and I did so because I did not like having one sticking off the front of my bow. I use to not have one period but got a deal on this one so what the heck... LOL These S-coils are not for stabilization since they are so light, only vibration dampening, so I figured it would help more closer to and under the hand. Plus I also have a wrist bow sling on it now and it mounts nicely there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VTbowman Posted September 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 Re: XT holding a XT....!!! [ QUOTE ] NO STS [/ QUOTE ] Why? Its so dang quiet, smooth and vibration free I do not see the need. Beside with my mini S-coil mounted to the inside of the riser, it may do the same thing as an STS. LOL I may even get the regular size S-coil for the front of the riser. Just because it would look cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VTbowman Posted September 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 Re: XT holding a XT....!!! Threw mine and Bob D's testing, and believe me its not scientific, we find that arrow noise greatly out weighs, or is noisier, then the bow being shot. This is judged by someone standing down 20 yards range, 20 feet off to the side, with his back turned to the shooter. Shooting a 30 yard target. Arrow "whistle" is what freaks a deer out not your bow. JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shoot into my garage and one of us will stand behind the SUV and listen. My boy says he can't hear anything from my XT and I very hear little from his Browning Adrenaline. The arrows seem to make alot more noise than the bows and the blazers seem alot quieter than regular vanes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the blazer are more quiet then the regular vanes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
