Hello All.
Riser Hoyt GMX 25".
Limbs. Kaya K3 Carbon. Long. 36lb at 70 ".
I am getting comments fellow club members regarding the noise my bow is making on releasing the arrow. They say it is noisy caused by something vibrating after the release! They have helped my with advice and assistance to try and track down the cause. They found the clicker was vibrating against the plate, so I removed it - still noisy, but not as bad. They noticed my sight was vibration when the string is 'plucked' - even though it has been tightened very hard and there is no discernible movement in the sight block or riser fitting when physically tested by hand. All stabilizers eliminated as OK.
I am currently using an 18 strand 8125 string. I understand this is a very fast string material. Would I be able to reduce the vibration by increasing the strand count (in the hope of slowing the string) say to 20 or 24? I make my own strings.
All suggestions gratefully received.
Dennis
