Default Stabilizer

i bought a 7" octane stabilizer in Jan. well it broke already. i seems that the tip has came unglued. makes me pretty mad it was $50. i was thinking of trying out the b stinger. does anyone use them. it looks very well built. the thing i was having trouble picking out is how big of weight do i want. i am think of 12" pro hunter with either 14oz or 17oz. not sure of which weight i want with out shooting them. any suggestions guys.

My suggestion would be to call Octane and get a replacement stabilizer or your money back.

Yep, I'd contact BowTech. It should not have broke that soon.

On the other note. I have a B Stinger on my Sentinel and I have the 8oz. Plenty heavy for my tastes. The weight is right on the end so it seems very effective.

I just started shooting a 12" B-Stinger with the 14 oz. weight. Today has been my first day shooting with it and it has only seen about 50 shots, but it seems to be perfect for me.

I have 2 Octane Stabilizers and I am very pleased with the way they work.

I like the forward weight on the B Stinger but I feel the Octanes are more effecient at several things I expect a stabilizer to do.
