    Anyone using limb silencers on the Chill? If so which one and does it impact speed much? Thanks.

    I have the Chill R. I thought about using the bow jacks. They seem to be the most popular. Like I said thought because this bow is just so quiet without. As for speed I do not think they take away that much to make a difference. With a good stabilizer I do not think you need them. Accuracy, quietness and speed in that order. Quick question. How do you like that sight? Stuck on CBE single or the Ascent Ambush single. Thanks.

    I have a set of Limbsaver broadbands on my Chill R and I think they make a pretty significant difference in sound/vibration. I'm not sure on speed though. The next time I bring my bow into the shop I'll run it through the chrono with and without and see what happens.

    Look at some of the tests between bowjax and Broadbands.
    I use the broadbands and by my ear (hardly scientific) I would say....reduced noise by 30% no performance change.

    I like the sight a lot. It has at 29 pin, 2 19s and a 10. Fibers are bright. What sold me on the Black Gold was I was making some adjustments and dropped the mounting screw to the sight in the yard and could not find it. Contact Black Gold and they shipped me a replacement for free and with a smile. Customer Service was great.

    Thanks for the feedback in the limb silencers.
