I'm in the process of setting up a new bow (53# @28). I am experiencing a lot of vibration when shooting. String silencers have been installed with little benefit. Brace height is now just shy of 1/2 inch above recommended range. Is there anything else I can do, short of installing mini limb savers on the limbs. Any suggestions would be appreciated. :help:
Heavier arrow may help. What type of bow is it?
The bow is a Rose Oak, Puma Hunter and I'm shooting a 450gr arrow.
Try more arrow weight , or a diferent string material.

Way to light of an arrow add 100 gr
What are you using for string silencers? How do you have them spaced? Try moving them up and down the string a bit.
I'm sure you are using the stock string, what is it?
Try a wood arrow at about 550 grains.
Maybe call Rose Oak and get their advice.
The string it came with was way to short, giving me a brace height of just under 9 inches. I made a new B50 string of the proper length bracing at 7 7/8 inches. Presently I'm waiting for a reply from Rose Oak.
I've tried moving the silencers up and down with no change in vibration. Even a second set didn't help.
Did you try a lower brace?
I don't beleive the arrow weight should give the effect you are getting.
Per their website "The recommended brace height for the Puma Hunter is 7" to 7 3/4"".
The 7 7/8 is pushing over it.
Try lowering brace.
I actually started at 7 1/2. At that height I was tearing up my bow hand with the feather quill. 7 7/8 is where I no longer hit my hand,
so that is where I left it.
I would call Brandon and see what he has to say. I am sure he can help you out.
Try lowering the brace height and raise the nocking point as this is what you essentially done anyway.
Also add a drop of glue to the fletch bottom.
