Default RE: Stealth Stabilizer

Mathews usually are a fairly balanced bow to begin with. That being said, I try to keep the stabilizer weight on the front and back of my riser fairly close in weight. I have a 4oz quiet tune on the front and back and it balances perfectly after the shot. If you wanted the bow to tilt forward a little more after the shot, You might use 6oz quiet tune. I had several conversations with stabilizer manufacturers about what weight to use and as a " general" rule, most recommend at least 8oz total to effectively cancel vibration/noise and to help the balance/stabilize the bow.

I' ve heard that the Stealth is a really good stabilizer, but I recommend that you call Simms/SVL and ask them about this stabilizer because I believe they have already tested it. While you are at it, ask them about the Quiet-Tune, you might be suprised by what they tell you. Also, e-mail Mathews and see what stabilizer they prefer, again the answer may suprise you. The quiet-tune is really hard to beat because it is one of few stabilizers that can be tuned to the actual harmonics of the bow.
