Currently using a Vibracheck Isolator. Seems o.k. But I had an S-Coil and as others stated, its a very good stabilizer. Its not much on weight so if you're looking for a little more weight for balance you may want something heavier and/or longer. My bow is pretty well balance without a stabilizer and I actually could not tell much difference when I took the V-check off. I've put an S-Coil on my son's bow and a few friends and they love it. As for Cabela's, sorry to hear your bad experience. I personally haven't had nothnig but great. However, I would not have them set up a bow for me. I bought my son a Diamond Edge package there and let them set it up with the accessories that came with it but ended up taking it all off and putting on better stuff. I suppose if you didn't know anything about bows they would get you by. Good luck with the stabilizer.
