Yeah I have three of them. Two on hamskea trinity's and another on a limb driver. I much prefer them to the spring style because as you mentioned, they stretch.

I literally have no idea what I'm doing.......ever.

 

Have them on both of my bows and have installed them on 2 others. I hated the spring and never used it. Attached directly to limb and use hammer arm on rest. But when the new contraptions came out I installed them and they are great. Smart invention and much better than the spring.

 

Same as above. I like them better than the spring.

 

Good to hear I just ordered one yesterday.

 

Can so one tell me what is so bad about the spring , its all I have used just dont know any different

 

Well I hooked my cord on a pipe that was on my work bench as I walked past and it stretched my spring. Usually the quiver covers it up but I didn't have it on at the time. I saw they have the rebound dampener now and thought it looked like a better idea. When the spring stretches it can mess up the timing.

 

Is there a way to use one of these with a Hybrid Hunter Pro?

 

Yes. Hamskea sells the dampener and the teardrop lever arm on their website. I ordered one two days ago for my hybrid hunter pro.

 

I have one on my EVL34 with a Trinity rest and I have one on my Enkore with Hybrid rest. The Rebound Dampener works great on both. Had one on my Ventum 33 and it worked great on that bow too.

It is slightly quieter than the spring and you don't feel any lingering vibration like you do with the spring sometimes.

I personally never had a problem with the spring but I honestly think the Rebound Dampener is the way to go.

 

It came on my Hamskea Primer. Rest is money so far.

 

I just looked it up on the Hamskea website as I have three HHP rests. The stock spring design has never been a problem.....thus far. It appears from the photos that the rebound dampner attaches at the limb end and not the rest? If so, the spring is removed from the rest arm and the activation cord is "hard wired" at that end? Some photos of one setup would be appreciated.

This way works fine on my remedy

Good to here I just ordered one

 

I’ve been on the fence honestly. I haven’t had an issue with the spring, but I have seemed to notice the Rebound Dampnr needed adjustment (added tension on string) after a hundred shots or so and again after 50 shots or so. I feel like the rubber dampener stretches or “settles” in?

Anyone else run the rebound dampener for a while now and notice the rubber thing is stretching?

Their instruction videos on their you tube channel on very good. Don’t know if you’ve seen them or not. They show you how much to stretch the dampener during installation. I believe that is an important detail because the slight stretching gives you a properly tensioned installation. It is perfectly normal to make further adjustment as necessary later on. Remember to make sure the cord goes slack at full draw after making adjustments.

 

I put one my Hunter Hybrid Pro tying thru hole in lever arm, however it wore the string. I didnt buy the teardrop lever mentioned above. Ended up going back to spring and tied a mini cat whisker on the cord and it seems quieter and less vibration.

 

I have 3 Trinitys with the standard spring design and they have been flawless for thousands of shots. I hunted in some very thick stuff last season and never had a problem with the spring catching on anything. Even though the new dampener appears to be a very clever design, I think it is a solution looking for a problem. However, everything Hamskea produces is quality!

Stretch the cord before put it on rest I let it stretch over night with weight on it and it will not move

 

Ran a few tests now and I’ve come to these conclusions:

1. Rebound dampener is awesome once it’s set right and has some prestretch in it.
2. The spring system is loud especially on Hybrid Hunter Pro models… Trinity doesn’t seem as loud.
3. The Primer is the best rest for the $ out there.

Working great so far.

 

Well you've convinced me so I just ordered 3 of them for my 3 Trinitys! [emoji6]

Think I'm going to get one. Think my trinity could be quieter

 

Definitely quieter. I have them on my two Mach 1s and the lady still has the spring on hers and hers is louder. She almost had an issue at TAC in Big Sky when he rest cord got caught on a branch while walking through the woods. If I hadn't stopped her it would have been a bad day.

 

My experience with the rebound dampener has been much the same as others here. I have it on two bows with Hybrid Hunter Pros and it significantly quieted the rest. It’s also nice getting rid of the spring for those times when I’m moving through thick brush in the elk woods. I did notice that there is a break in period that requires retightening the cord a few times, even though I pre-stretched the D braid I’m using. I guess it’s the rubber of the dampener itself stretching a little.

 

If you are wanting to make to conversion over to the Rebound Dampener on your Hybrid or Trinity Arrow rest, I recommend also picking up the Large Teardrop Lever Arm. This is a direct replacement for the factory lever arm and allows you to easily eliminate the Dampening Coil Spring.

Large Teardrop Lever Arm

 

There is no break in period for the Rebound Dampener if you install it correctly.

When you thread the cord through the dampener you need to pull it really tight every time you thread it through the next hole and make sure it stays against the limb. After you get it woven through all of the holes in the damener, wrap the rest of the cord around your fingers and give it a couple good hard pulls before you clamp it to the rest lever arm.

When you attach the cord to the lever you need to stretch the Rebound Dampener out a little just like the spring. Not super tight but decent tension.

When it's all set up you should be able to pluck the cord with your fingers and not get any launcher vibration and the cord itself shouldn't sound like a banjo string it's so tight. You should just hear a dull thud when you pluck the cord.

I haven't had to adjust mine after initial setup doing it like I described above.

 

Installed mine recently. Definitely quieter.

I had to re tighten maybe 2-3 times and then it settled. Has been good since.

 

Got the tear drop lever arm on my Trinity. I’m really liking this setup. Quiet and it shoots great

 

are you using the clamp or can you still use the easy glide tensioner?

 

I'm gonna use both! The Easy Glide until cord stretching stops and then use the clamp to lock it down tight!
