finally got rid of the metallic thud from my GT

Did you send it to Baldy's in OH? If Ken is working on your bow you won't be sorry. He does tremendous work. I usually stop there quite regularly.

yeah ken has her. making a string, putting on a limb driver and tuning her all up. should be awesome when i get her back!

Here's what I did with my GT500 to help deaden the sound from the string stop rod.

- take a piece of scrap string leech, bowjax, etc.
- remove string stop rod
- cut scrap from leech, bowjax, etc down to fit inside hole in string stop rod base and push it in
- reinstall string stop rod

I didn't take my stop rod off for the pics because it wasn't moving easily so I left it as is. But you get the idea.

i tried that nicko it didn't fix mine. but to show the other guys i bought a cable slide dampner from bowjax and slid it over the string stop rod to right where nicko's finger is pointing.

I can't say I noticed much of a change from it either. I read about somebody doing and felt I had nothing to lose.

For those waiting I got the GT back today and have not got to shoot her yet. But here is a pic of the bowjax installed, and as promised as soon as I get some time I will shoot the with and without video for comparison.

I saw your bow at Baldys and had Ken put the same bowjax on my Answer. You definitely have a sweet looking bow. I will let you know how it works on mine.

Thanks man I appreciate it! I love this bow.

Try a Dead end on any Elite bow with a Hitek or bowjax stopper. The carbon rod and the way it's made gets rid of that thunk sound.

Thank you for the tip. I seem to still have a metalic type thunk sound on my Answer with the bowjax installed on my SS. I can't tell if it's the LimbDriver ProV or if it's just the way the bow is. I don't have that sound on my Z28 but that bow has a Trophy Ridge micro rest.
