          Wow. Nothin’ huh? You might call 3Rivers or Kustom King and see if they know who makes them and if they could get some for you.

          How are these different from other string silencers? Are they new?

          Good luck with your search. Maybe someone will come along who can help you.

            THEY ARE MADE FROM STRING MATERIAL, FULLY WATER PROOF AND WILL LAST AS LONG AS THE STRING ITS SELF. I STUMBLED ON A YOUTUBE ABOUT THEM. I CALL 3 RIVERS AND FOOTED SHAFT. NO ONE YET. ONCE I GET TIME I WILL FURTHER INVESTIGATE. THANK YOU FOR LOOKING

                We have a Tip of the Week article on how to make them with yarn. Wooly String Silencers I’ll bet you can make them with string material, as you described above. Sounds like a good idea, and all the suppliers should carry the string. Where would you find Dyneema 12 strand rope?

                Thanks for reporting back on what you found. 😀

                  Right here Robin; http://www.reddenmarine.com/view_brand_products.cfm?action=Brand&department=0&category=992&brand=49&counter=0&letter=0&subcategory=0

                  Cut off a section of the rope(3/8’s diameter)about an inch and a half long and slide it onto the string via the hollow center of the rope. Tie in the middle and brush out the strands till it becomes separated to form a “Puff” of fibers. It will expand and puff out more as the Bow is shot. The “Puff” is much like a cotton ball when it spreads out. Different colors of this ‘Marine rope” made from Dyneema, a material used in the manufacturing of Bowstring material, sheds moisture and does not add significant weigh to the string, Being water proof and lite weight enhances the string dampeming for an effective “string silencer” and does not rob the Bow of speed due to the lite mass weight properties of the silencer.
