I'm getting a new bow when I get my tax return. You can have mine if you can wait that long.

I don't shoot with a stabilizer for vibration reduction,although they really help with that,I use them for balance and STABILIZATION.I will add weight out in front of my stab and it will help settle any excess movement down to make it easier to aim with,I even do this to my hunting bows.

This is a pic of my hunting bow with a 6" vibracheck stabilizer with a heavy 3",4.9 oz doinker on the end.

I have a 10" Fuse Axium on order to go on it and it has all the weight out front.
