? for Darton shooters
I was wondering if anyone shooting Dartons have shot their bow with and without the VSS (Vibration Suppresion System) modules. My Maverick came without them and I am wanting to get opinions on whether there worth the extra money or not.

RE: ? for Darton shooters
I shot my Tundra without them for a few shots. My impression is that they didn't do all that much to absorb vibration, but maybe helped a little. Limb Savers are still the #1 accessory as far as cutting vibration and noise, IMHO. Get a decent pair of catwhiskers on the string, and a string leech or small ball of catwhiskers (cut in half and tied on) on the power cable above the serving. That last trick made a difference in noise, not only with my Dartons, but also with the Bowtech Duallys I had. I have a short Enhancer 2000 and a 6" Stealth stabilizer, which cut the vibes down to nothing.

I haven't shot the Darton's with the VSS module yet. My Mav is 03 model. I think they softened the Draw cycle on there cam in 04 if I'm not mistaken. On my O3 model the cam has a little hand shock and vibration. I set it up with the NV Dampening system along with cat wickers,limb savers and shock blocker sab. and it took most of the hand shock/vibration out it. Jerry

RE: ? for Darton shooters
I didn't order them on my 05 darton tempest because i dont think they would make a difference .
It is the most shock free and quietest bow I ever shot.
I thought my 99 maverick was quiet until i got my TEMPEST
