RE: What size of stabilizer to I need?
This seems to be a fairly personal choice. For hunting, I would want one as small and compact as possible - like the S-Coil or Mini S-Coil. But some bows need a longer and heavier stabilizer to achieve nuetral balance. As much as I hated to add more weight to it, I just put a 10" doinker on my 38" Hoyt Protec and it finally balances about nuetral. My 32" Reflex is fine with the much smaller Mini S-coil.

Everything from price to camo patteren come into play here. All I can tell you is to take you bow w/you next time you go shoppin' and try some out. But they are right, neutral ballance is key.
