I baught this set of vibration dampners at Bass pro Shops a few weeks back and tried them on Matilda with not much effect in comparison to the Sims Limbsavers. BUT I did however try something unconventional ( imagine me doing that??)
I cut the the dampner down to about a 1/4 inch thick and removed the limb bolts and the limbs and placed the piece between the inside of limb and the limb pocket. Now these are dome shaped and very soft and pliable, my Matilda has to keep the limb bolts backed out about 2 1/2 -3 turns to keep the poundage right and I always noticed a slight pop when fired whicj people that shoot bows at the minimum pounds with limb bolts backed out may know what I mean.This little trial removed all sound and vibration completely, even if you keep your limbs cranked down you could still do this as soft as they are. They didn`t work out on the limbs but inside them it was amazing. Here is a pic of what was left after I cut them this part I throw away, the rest of it looked the same just thicker.
