Who can argue with the greatest coaches, shooters and bowhunters in the world with their proven stabilizer tips and suggestions ???
Only the cyber staff on Hunting Net! LOL!
I shoot to 75 yards with my competition bow ( with 36 in stab, Postem balance bars, 6 power scope, I can thread a needle), but to hunt you don't need a stabilizer at all.
I've shot 3D tournaments where the wind was blowing so hard the first thing everyone took off was the stabs. I hunt with a self made longbow, I don't have a stab.
I've shot with the best in the world, and can hang with almost anyone today. Do don't go spouting off something you have read!
I've spent over forty years in archery, it all depends on the level you want to accomplish and the ability you have. I hunt one place that I have a 12 yard shooting lane, I can shoot without looking through my peep!
What works for one will not work for the other. It drives me crazy when I see someone shoot that doesn't point the thumb down but that just my preference. If it works for them and they bring home meat, more power to them.
