    Default Bowjax/limbsaver comparison

    Pretty good video comparison here. Notice how the limb quits vibrating on the bowjax side and the sims side keeps on going like the energizer bunny.

    To me and maybe Im wrong but with the limb keeping on vibrating isnt the limbsaver doing its job by the vibration moving thru the limb and out thru the limbsaver as appose to the bowjax completely stopping and the vibration moving from the limb to your hand thru the riser...My explanation might not be top notch but hopefully some get what I am saying...Kinda makes sense...The vibe stays in the limb allowing the limbsaver to dissapate it as to the bowjax suddenly stopping meaning the vibe moves on to another part of the bow like the riser and your hand...Maybe I am crazy but it sounds solid....lol...

    These comparisons kinda remind me of broadhead threads where one is always better than the others....Wonder what the indians would think being they killed buffalo and deer with a stick and string and arrows with sharpened rocks on the end...Yes we have evolved but you half to admit a broadhead or a vibration dampener wont make you a better hunter...

    I swapped the BowJax on my GTO for limbsavers and could not tell a discernible difference. A friend and I compared the sound difference of bows at the shot when standing out front 15 or 20 yards and to the side between the GTO, which when shooting seemed louder to the shooter and an E 500 with BowJax which sounded very quiet. With eyes closed, so we didn't know which bow was being shot, we couldn't tell the difference.
    I think they sound the same to the deer.
    Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not
    me, I want people to know "why" I look this way. I've
    traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.
