Summary

We perceive sound louder when we feel vibration when we hear a sound
When not shooting a bow and just listening to it being shot we can not determine the difference between string silencers
Mass mitigates sound on the string or in the arrow.
Synthetic Silencers out perform natural fur.
When tested wet fur in some cases is actually louder
Dacron vs Fast Flight is simply mass. Having said that some bows do sound better with Dacron
- Theory- Bows with bad tiller prefer dacron
Move the Mass out of the string and silencers and place it in your arrow. You can sound advantage and penetration
Synthetic Silencers that are lightweight are the top choice
Widow Silencers, Dynapuffs available at 3 Rivers or Cat whiskers are the top choice
Placement- Place at 1/3 and 1/4 of the string for heterodyne effect.

Pursuing the truth

I will be using common testing practices found in the Industrial Sciences. Measurement System Evaluations, Designed Experiments, Sampling Plans and Regression. I record every detail of testing and maintain copious notes. The investigations are meant to challenge our current beliefs by validating or invalidating our theories.
