Yea, the lack of loud noises is rather alien, especially after being used to firearms. However, when I take a step back and think about it, it amazes the hell out of me. Some bent composite materials, a synthetic string, pushing a round piece of carbon fiber at 300fps through objects is pretty amazing. I swear, every time I shoot my bow, I'm amazed. Today's bows are engineering marvels, IMO.
