S5 SILENCER... IS IMPROVEMENT (POSSIBLE) I THINK SO..

Post by blackjack »

GDAY I'VE BEEN TINKERING AROUND & FOUND THAT THIS SYSTEM WORKS GREAT WITH THE EXCALIBUR S 5 , EVEN THE MISSIS SAY'S IT MAKE''S A GREAT DEAL OF DIFFRENCE TO THE SOUND (WHICH AMAZED ME) :shock: ..I THINK THEY COST $15 THERE ABOUTS FROM THE STATES, THERE CALLED (MAXJAX STABILZER DAMPENER'S) THERE'S NO CUTTING OR CHANGES THEY FIT STRAIGHT ON, WELL WORTH A TRY..'P.S THEY ALSO COME IN MANY DIFFRENT COLORS (CAMO-BLACK-RED-BROWN & EVEN PINK FOR THE LADIESImageImageImage

Thanks blackjack, think I might try the maxjax ones on the S5.
mate they do work great ah, the bow pictured is a vixen interesting to see how they work on my others. but that wont be for a time yet l've just sold my house & dont move into the new one for a month, try them outside let a buddy shoot the bow without them on & you stand back 15 feet then put them on & do the same thing again & l'm sure you'll agree. thanks mate

I wonder how many fps are lost, if any, with the brace height that high? It's good to know more ways to quite them down, though.

It looks as though his brace height is right at the back line which is where I keep mine..

mate..none at all its at the correct brace height or where excalibur recomends there abouts any lower you'll be having no need for the use of the excalibur S 5 as a rule l keep my string one string width including serving spaced away from the top line.. :D

g'day. go back up-stairs (new photo)..this was the same brace height as the other photo l took just a clearer shot, as you can see if they are too low they'll be hitting the rubbers :wink:
