Title: How much does the string influence vibration?
Post by: oldandslow on May 16, 2021, 11:15:45 PM
Just wondering abit about tuning a bow. Brace height and nock height are all I really know.
Does the 2 have a real effect on reducing the felt vibration?

If the bow induces vibration to the string, a string with more mass is going to dampen the vibration more.
Cant take the string out of the equation.
