    I'm pretty sure 99.5% of us here do use one.

    Cons- Are there any? I guess it does stick out a tiny bit, but other than that put one on your bow

    Would appreciate any pros and cons that you seasoned bow hunters may have.
    I really don't know of any "CON's" to using one, while hunting, MOST made today will help quiet your bow, steady you up a bit, which are certailny "PRO's" from what I can tell. I use a cheaper stab that is a little long, almost 9" total, but I also can throw my bow over my shoulder and let it hang by the stab if I'm just covering ground. Each of my bows wears one of these, and they are CHEAP, but relatively effective as well....
