something I never thought about,,,, I need a couple pairs of silceners and I have a choice and wondering which one is the best ?
Coyote,Otter,Fox,beaver,Black sheep?
also need new strings if anyone has someone they recommend for selfbow strings?
Wool, either the ones that Terry sells on here, or Musk Ox.
Ive been making my own out of wool yarn- 10 bucks worth of yarn will go a loooong way
I have bobcat on my Bois d Arc

Beaver is good and stands up in the rain.
Muskrat. I like ti best of all of them.
I put wool on every string i make for my selfbows. Its cheap and works very well. If they get pull of debris just pull em off and make new ones.
i use beaver,bobcat,muskrat and otter.they all do a great job for me.i am sure the wool works fine too.it is all about what you like.
Most sefbows I've seen did'nt need silencers if set up right. They are so quiet!!
Beaver here also.

Rainman is right! Most selfbows don't need string silencers. I like the look of string silencers on any bow so I have been using sheeps wool. Works great even with smaller strips and repells rain.
Never needed any on mine I had like Rainman stated. I now use the wool that Terry sells for my longbows and then I need only one of them on the bottom.

Would you like a couple timberwolf to try? I'll send you a piece to cut yourself for free and see if you like them. I've got scraps everywhere over here.
