Stirrup wraps??
Looking for recommendations for effective stirrup wraps. I wrapped the stirrup of my Micro in paracord, and it made a significant difference. What else have you used to take some twang out of your stirrups?

Re: Stirrup wraps??
I don't have that option as the Dr. Stirrup doesn't fit my Grizzly nor does it fit the Micro right now due to them both having had a change in the bolt pattern.fergie wrote:replaced it with a drstirrup two footer.......... helped a lot
So I too am interested in this thread. I do like the thought of the 550 cord. Rather, could you please share a picture of your creation so that I may see how you did it and how you tied the ends off?

Re: Stirrup wraps??
I used this and really liked it's properties for both quieting the bow and the vibration reduction. And... it's camo...

Re: Stirrup wraps??
I brought mine to a shop that does spray on bed liners and had it sprayed with black rhinolining. If you tell them you're not in a hurry and if they can spray it when they're doing a truck box the cost will be minimal to nothing. My first one was $10.00 and I got another sprayed for a second bow a couple years later and wasn't charged. The first one I've used for thousands of shots shows no wear.

You're only paranoid if everyone isn't out to get you.
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

That's a pretty cool idea!!!! They actually have small cans of the stuff that you can buy and do it yourself.

Re: Stirrup wraps??
I've got two bows like this. I used 3 strips on stirrup, one centered one on each side. Then I used the forth on the arrow retention spring. takes two sets but works well and has been durable.fergie wrote:what about the narrow and long limbsaver strips that just stick on???

Re: Stirrup wraps??
I wrapped mine with paracoard and didn't make a big difference. Then I tried wrapping it all with camo form fabric wrap and it actually made a big difference. 3 pros: -it's elastic which is why it deadens sound.
- comes in any camo pattern you want.
- it's non adhesive so no mess but sticks to itself like glue
