i just bought a secondhand Killion Check it beacause of the sturdy construction and total lack of plastic breakable bits on it for this very reason,

Well, tried one and bought it.

It felt very nice but it threw the CoG so far forward the bow just fell forward after the shot, so I've had to shorten the longrod just to slow it down a bit.

As a side note I also tried out a Seven37 in the shop and was very impressed with dampening on the bow. I put the suppression mount on and there was nothing. The only way I could tell with my right hand that I had taken the shot was the fact that the bow rotated. No vibration AT ALL!!!

They seem very popular in Malaysia ....

that looks like 3 supression mounts, with the short rods being extenders with doinkers on them?

what a setup looks the business, but i bet that weighs a ton. Also is there THAT much vibration in a well setup recurve that you need that much dampening?

He must have a whole load of weight at the end of his longrod to make it roll that violently when theres so much weight close in to the riser. Ive found using a suppression mount as an extender that it increases the noise coming out of the shot but kills vibration. Guess I will have to put up with a noisier bow!

doesn't she find that the wind affects the triads more.
