I have some on my Wes Wallace longbow, and they do a decent job, prefer some of the others though, llama wool is my favorite....

I've used them and they work.  That being said I thought they made more of a twang sound, where as my beaver makes more of a lower thud.   Just my opinion.  Joe

I have'nt found anything better than Hush Puppies.  I usually cut them in half for my longbows and they handle the job fine.

I use them in conjunction with Hush puppies and they make my bow dead quiet.

They work, but my chronograph says they will cost you a couple fps.  They are rather expensive and don't work as well as plain old rubber catwhiskers IMO.

They work better in endless loop strings.They don't seem to hold up as well in flemish twist strings.

For the money I suggest plain old catwhiskers or the wooly whispers.  They don't work any better and they cost three times as much.

I have a set that is proly 6-7 years old and have been on I dont know how many bows. They hold up just fine and work well in flemish strings. Hide em in the Lamma. Ive done that before. I like em on my huntin rigs.

In my experience, I believe Leeches work better on compounds than Trad bows. Don't ask me why.  I use Super Leeches on my Caribou (shot barebow/fingers) and my other compounds, and Musk Ox Wool balls on all my recurves...

They do work for me but they sure dont last very long. I would shoot them off in a week.
