I've never noticed the 10 ring on a live buck before. I'll have to look closer this year.
Seriously, I've been considering going to a bigger stabilizer to help me hold a little more steady, but I'm not conviced that it'll help considering the fact that it would add more weight. This is one area where I have no experience at all.
Yes, a longer stabilizer will help you hold steady. That's why the target guys have those 30" monstrosities on their bows. When I'm in a stand, I'm all about hunting, so if it could hurt my hunt I try to minimize it, becasue I don't need anymore help screwing things up. I do that well enough on my own.
You can only see the 10 ring on PA deer. It's a genetic thing the game commission came up with to help us Pennsyltuckians shoot straighter.
