For all of you 3under shooters, just wondering.... What is the nock height you're using...??
For years I always set mine at 5/8"... Today I found an old string from when I was shooting split finger.
It had a single nock set that was 5/8" to the top of the nock set, so I nocked an arrow and crimped another one above the arrow nock. The new nock height is 7/8".
I took it out to shot it and it's like you put a muffler on the dang thing!!! :archer:
I only shoot WOOD arrows... My kid makes them, fast as I can break them!

There is a fine line between Hunting, & Sitting there looking Stupid...

May The Great Spirit Guide Your Arrows..... Happy Hunting!!!

7/8" sounds awful high!  I went with the recommended 1/2" and made sure to stealth tape the limb bases and use string silencers and a heavy arrow and have had several people mention how quiet the bow is.  That said, I haven't tried the higher nock position so I don't know if it would improve, but if it works for you it works!

At Full Draw

Just got mine this last month and I love mine. B riser #3 limbs 50lbs at 28 inches. I have a bit of a collection of bows and I feel bad because this bow has made me just neglect everything else I have.

I usually shoot one piece bows, I have some ILF bows that I don't care too much for but this Bear T/D is something else. It feels like a super super kodiak, it weighs a bit more, and I could shoot it all day.

I had to add a bit of string wax to the limb pockets to fix a "creaking" since then its been dead silent. I can't stress how much I love this thing.
