silent assassin I am using a Vibracheck Isolator 8" 10oz on my BowTech Patriot Dually but I just ordered a 6" Stealth so I can see what everybody is bragging about ,I hear they're the best so I'll give it a try . I'm going to put a Simm's Enhancer for the rear to absorb any missing vibration's if there is any .

Can't comment on the EX VFTs as I don't have one but I am using a Xring 7 inch silicone on the Liberty (Sims Enhancer in the rear mount) and a NAP Shockblocker 500 with Sims, short mount, Enhancer 2000 on the MM VFT.

My best friend has a 6" X-Ring silicone bead in the front on his EX-VFT and nothing in the back. It seems to work well for him.

My Liberty has a 4" Stealth Stabilizer in the front and a Simms Stabilizer Enhancer in the back, and this works amazingly well!

I have an 03 Extreme VFT and just put a 6 1/2 inch Lore on it. It is a new model that has a pivot bolt mount. The camo matches the bow. Works great. I have nothing on the back side. I have looked at the Carolina Archery site and they have a photo of the all black one with no pivot bolt but I can't find a photo of the newer model. I paid $39.95.

silent, not shooting a VFT, but I've had very good results with the Vibracheck Isolators. On my P40 Dually the 7 1/2" works well. Same thing on my Patriot. On the Liberty the new Isolator Carbon is working great.

Front in order from bow to end:

"¢ Sims Enhancer 2000
"¢ 2 small Sims modules
"¢ Sims Stabilizer enhancer

Back in order from bow to end:

"¢ 1 small Sims module
"¢ Sims Stabilizer enhancer


I wish I could put more weight behind to offset the Copper John sticking way out of the front. Anyone seen any heavy stubby stabilizers?

Jeff,

What am I crazy No, a buddy of mine bought one and he was saying it was a little top heavy and he wanted to put a stabilizer in the back but he said the cables line up with the hole and it's only 1.75" to the cables. So I thought I would see what these guys are doing.
