How To Install Fur Bowstring Silencers

Posted on August 5, 2009 by Raymond Burton

The old beaver balls :-) Just put a new string on my bow and that means installing some string silencers as well. Since I’m on a long bow, I decided to go with fur string silencers.

My buddy Jeff and I took a trip up to Edmonton to see bow maker Jack Kempf because Jeff was picking up his custom bow. A nice black, diamond wood take down. While we were there, Jack was nice enough to let me have some fur for my string silencers.

He cut it up into strips for me and handed me a baggy of fur strips. He’s such a nice man. There is not an ounce of hurry or rush in him. REALLY cool seeing his shop.

When I got home, it was time to install the fur string silencers so I thought I would film it just incase anyone else would find it useful to their own install.

Here it is. If you have any tips on installing fur string silencers on your bow, feel free to share in the comments.

About Raymond Burton

Writing here is treating me well and I enjoy it a ton. I enjoy..no make that love working out, but one on one personal training is a time for money style of job. So unfortunately there is a limit to the amount of people I can help with my advice in any given day unless I wanted to work 24/7. Doing that also limits the amount of time I can spend on non-money making passions. I also found that putting my all into getting results for a person limited the amount of people I could give 100% to. This is where the internet entered. I found that with the buildingbodies.ca training site I could put everything I knew about physical activity on the net and everyone would have access to it for free
