This is a good question? The rule for the stablizer is (only 1 stablizer being LESS THAN 12in in lenth from the nearest point of attachment is allowed.) But what if my stablizer is less than 12inches, but its connected to a 10 oz weight and the weight is connected to a quick disconnect and all this together adds up to 14 or 15 inches. A weight and a disconnect are not stablizers and the point of attachment is where the stablizer screws into the other device. I think this rule used to say (less than 12 inches from the point of attachment at the bows riser). But i could be wrong. I shoot the hunter class and my stablizer set up is with in this rule and I dont plan to change it. But I can see where this could be a loop hole if someone wanted to push it. I think this is a good question for BowPro.
