RE: "Diadvantages" of a 10" stabilizer?
 

I have a 12" Super Stix.;) But today, I'm a little older and it's now a 10" Axium.

My stabilizer is 10 inches long and weighs a pound. I don't have any problems with it, and it's on a 31 inch ATA bow.

Even if you had a 20" stabilizer it still wouldn't stick out as far as your arrow does.

I don't understand the logic that a 10" stabilizer is in the way when the arrow sticks out further than that. How many guys complain about a knocked arrow being in the way in the treestand?

RE: "Diadvantages" of a 10" stabilizer?
 

Thats a very good point. I think though people that complain about it being in the way might be talking about after they draw back, but still i dont really understand...

Could just be "Doinker Envy":)

hahhhahhaha could be...

RE: "Disadvantages" of a 10" stabilizer?
 

You guys crack me up, I too am trying out a11.5" Doinker I will use it for 3-D but for elk hunting I think I want somethingsmaller andlighter. It weighs 16.1oz, its the Field Series Power Bar (BP11). I really like how well it holds a bow steady, but when hiking 6 to 10 miles a day, I can make do without the added weight. These past few years I have used the Limb Saver System on my bows. They too work realy well.

Actually what I found when I had a longer stabilizer was that I could avoid stuff with my arrow (because I'm so used to it) but I was bumping it with my stabilizer. The bottom line was when it cost me a shot on a doe that had come on the back side of the tree and stopped. There was a branch that split off and as I leaned around the tree there was no way for me to get my stabilizer around that branch to get the shot. Had it been an 8" stabilizer that would have been meat in the freezer. I'm kind of a klutz too so I need to keep things simple.;)

Take heart, HuntingBry. If it'd been an 8" stabilizer, you'd have figured out some other way to screw up. Karma, ya know. It simply wasn't that deer's day to die.;)
