Abstract

Flexible string dampers can include resilient bodies configured to be inserted between strands of a bowstring or cable in archery equipment. The dampers can include openings or recesses in along their longitudinal or transverse axes to provide additional flexibility and vibration dampening. Accessories and inserts can be added to the bowstring by positioning them within the openings or recesses, and the accessories and inserts can be exchanged from the bowstring without removing the damper and without needing external equipment such as a bow press to reduce tension on the string or cable. A damper can also be used as a peep sight with a central opening configured to change in width in response to changes in tension in the strands holding it in place.
