Not only guns have silencers. Bows have them too. The silencers attached on bows reduce the vibration and noise produced when an arrow is launched.

Or even if you don't shoot for competitions, you can use arrow nocks to identify your own shot against other hunters. There are even lighted arrow nocks that turn on the moment it is launched. And the light won't go off unless you manually turn it off.
