Sometimes I use this and sometimes I don't (here's why)

The truth is, sometimes I use a string stopper and sometimes I do not. On target applications a string stopper isn't that necessary but almost all of my hunting bows will have a string stop. In this video, I detail my full reasoning on this topic.

thank you Jon. I started shooting in the early 90's before string stops and side bars. I appreciate your clear explanantion.

My old switchback xt twangs the first 9 notes of dueling banjos every time it’s shot.

Haha that is awesome

[@rogergreider3568]

Still the best bow made. I have one too. I put some cat whiskers on the string and cables

I remember when the STS came out in the early 2000s as an add-on accessory.

Great topic. Go see the Firenock videos about their Ti string stopper. It's not an add for them but it's full of great science behind it. Again great topic John.

A string stop greatly reduces vibration and quites a bow noise down the twang if you will with the older bows that didn't have string stops.

One thing the Dud didn't mention is that some string stops can prevent the string from hitting your forearm. Especially on the bows with less string tension at brace. I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned.

[@Eightball2516]

I removed mine I had new strings put on and the string stop was tearing them up in that spot

[@mikeok5682]

Was it served in that area
Have one and served and no issues

@@mikeok5682 Yea, a string stop should not hurt your string at all as long as it is served well.
