Stabilizers..?
 
What stabilizer do you use on your bow? How do you like it?

B-stinger. I will never change to anything else. It does its job, cleaning up the painting of the target. And hey, it matches my bow.

S-COIL works great and does the job. I have been looking into fuse and would recomend them to... :) :) :)

Limbsaver S-coil does the job of what? NOT WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION! The only thing you can count on is dampening the noise and shock, so I consider the S-coil as a noise dampener tool, not a stabilizer.:)

I use a few different ones. From hunting to competition. I like Vibra-checks Carbon fiber for hunting. And I like Cartel and Kyber and Doinker for competition.

For Shooting Spots and Indoor 3D I use a Carbon Impact Multi Carbon Rod 34 inch Stabilizer and for bowhunting and Bowhunter Division 3D I use the Carbon Impact 12 inch Multi Carbon Rod Stabilizer they are light weight , extremley effectiveat dampening vibration and help to balance the bow best to suit my needs.
At the shop that I work at I just setup a guys Bowtech Tribute the other day with a Doinker Chubby Hunter and was impressed by its ability to dampen what little noise the bow made and with it being so small it didnt add a lot of weight to the bow, which is what the customer wanted.

I agree 100%. I tried one last week on a Tribute I was testing and found it basically useless.I also use a Stealth and after trying a few recently have come to realize just how effective the Stealth are. Try one you won't be dissappointed.

I use a 10" AEP on the 2" quick disconnect for a total of 12" on my hunting/HC bow (the Allegiance). For my open class/spots bow (Consitution) I have a 31.5" doinker carbon elite.

Actually, I have used it and is IMHO great for dampening vibration and quieting things down, and a good choice for an economical hunting stabilizer. It will not however get the weight out and away from the bow to help slow down and minimize range of motion - i.e. pin/scope float. Go screw in a 12" AEP or 11.5" doinker elite on the front of your bow and see how much the pin/scope floats on a 60 yard target as compared to a s-coil. You will see that getting the weight further from the bow like this will help you control that float and range of movement. There is an awesome link on this topic somewhere out there that explains a LOT on stabilizers, but the search is down on AT.com and I can't seem to find it on here. Maybe I will post if up later if I can find it.

I have used it, for I own one. The S-coil is a marketing lie, because it does not stabilize the bow in drifting sights or weight distribution. The only this the S-Coil does is dampen the noise and reduce shock. It is simple as that. The only reason Limbsaver markets it as a "stabilizer for a affordable price" is that it fits in your stabilizer area, making it really an extended piece of navcom, not a counter weight. There is a big difference in the definition. And because I have one, I can definately say it does not work as a stabilizer, it works for noise and shock softner. Again, big difference in definition and the actual purpose that the S-Coil does and a real stabilizer will do to your shots.

I just replaced my old (95) steel 6 inch stabilizer with a 7 in. NAP 500 and love it. Very quiet and helped balance the bow, used to lean back , now the bow stays straight up and down;)

After reading this thread and getting somewhat educated, I changed stabilizers on my bow. I took off a 5" Vibracheck gel and put on a 7" Alpine Pro-flex with a forward weight. What a difference! The vibracheck really didn't do much to stabilize my bow at all. I guess I didn't really know what pin float was until it was gone. My bow doesn't need much in the way of vibration absorption and I found out what a stabilizer is for. Now do I stick with the Alpine or experiment some more?
Thank you to those of you who made it clear what a stabilizer is for. I noticed a marked improvement in accuracy with the forward weight and longer stabilizer. Man it pays to be on this site!
