    Thanks for the info Ben. I will check out all the screws tonight. I tried shooting it with the tube off and it only got louder. More of an increase in vibration I think due to the peep being so bulky. I can't wait to get a new string and get this POS tube peep off. I didn't like it from the beginning.

    On the suppressor how close or far away should it be from the string? It's just barely touching the string right now and I mean barely.

    It's probably your peep tube man...I never realized how loud those things are till its gone!....That bow should be quieter than a Matthews by far....possibly something loose on the bow? Do you shoot with your quiver on or off and how bout your buddy?

    That sounds right for the string suppressor but you should try taking it off and see what that's like and you should also put it a little more snug to the string to see what that does. Don't be afraid to experiment, it's how you'll learn. As has been said before, more arrow weight is going to do the most to quiet you down and every little bit helps.
