RE: The Stealth Stabilizer.
 

I have a question, or 2. How did you know the 4" - 6 oz would work for your bow? I mean, did you just make a guess, try a similar weight but different brand? Stabilizers are also there to intentionally change the balance and movement of the bow, so how did you account for that? Just a few questions. They sound like a great investment, but without being able to test the different sizes, both weight and length, on a given bow, just how do you know? One change to the next would competely alter the "feel" of the bow. I am sure all the Stealth models would reduce vibration and such.

Just curious,

jmac,

Those are good questions! I like a slow forward roll on my bows, and the Liberty was already balanced perfectly even. I knew that if I put a 6 oz. on the front with the stabilizer enhancer in the back, it would counter-act and the front would just slowly roll forward!

Another thing about the Stealth Stabilizers and that one chamber weighs more than the other, so in other words, the stabilizer doesn't balance in the center. You can rotate the heavy side towards your riser or you can have it far away from the riser, which is a nice feature, it allows you to get the feel that you want.

I just went by what my gut told me, which is sometimes the best thing to do, and it worked great for me! Any extra weight up front will help stabilize the bow. For hunting purposes, the different weight distribution of the stabilizer won't make a big deal in accuracy. If you want a stabilizer for extreme tournament shooting, then you definetly want to get the best balancing stabilizer out there for the bow, but for hunting, it just isn't as important (yes, it should still be thought of though).

Thanks. Kind of what I was thinking, but just thought I would ask. My new bow will be here soon and of course, I need new stuff to go on it. :D

I am currently using a Golden KEY 7" Tranquilizer, I hear so much about the Stealth I am wondering if I purchase a custom 6" 8 oz. would there be a noticeable differance from what Im now using.
Thanks

BowTech Dually.......in a word YES.

I tested my Pro38 Dual Cam as well as my Patriot Dually with an 8" Stealth Hunter
as well as a 6" VS. 2 different length Tranquilizers. It wasn't even fair. The 8" actually beat out a combination of the 7" Tranquilizer AND an Enhancer2000.
If you really want to tame a BowTech Dually to its fullest, don't skimp on the mass weight of the stabilizer. I hunted with an 8" 12oz.? I think and while it gave a pretty solid forward roll when held by the grip while static, it just sits there at the explosion of the shot then falls forward. It will also help steady your aim.
A stock 6" Hunter(whatever weight that is? I forget off the top of my head) is probably just about perfect for a Patriot Dually. While the 8" was fine, That length (6") felt better to me, but I was trying a borrowed one at the time as I only had an 8" so that's what I hunted with.While they work extemely well on any bow, The dual chamber design lends itself very well to the balanced explosion of a dual cam.

I am shooting a straight 6" Hunter off my Liberty for this season (No custom weighting).

I won't shoot anything else on my bows.

If you are impressed with the stabilizer, check out the new bow holder. I received one in the mail a couple of days ago and after testing it in the yard, I found that Jerry has put out another great product. Sturdy and light. My bow will be in place and ready this hunting season. With the looks of his products. It is eveident that there is some pride in his workmanship.

RE: The Stealth Stabilizer.
 

Thanks to all of you that have tried my stabilizers and posted your thoughts about being satisfied customers!:)
I want to let you spring turkey hunters know that my Stealth Bow holder is also available in a lefthanded version,for all you "south-paws" out there!
To my knowledge this is the only bowholder of its type available for lefthanded archers.

Jerry! just to let you know ,I recieved my new 2004 BowTech Patriot Dually on Sat but due to my busy schedule I haven't been able to do a comparison test as yet ,But i have shot my new bow with your 6" on it and there is a quite a difference from the Freak bow with your stabilizer on it compared to the 10" Vibrocheck Isolator .I hope before the weekend that I'm able to do the comparison between the 2 I'll let you know how it goes but as for a great looking stabilizer with great craftmanship I'm sure there will be no comparison .Thank's for biulding such a great product for us hunter's and maybe real soon I'll get one of those bow holders .

I stopped by Cabelas yesterday and picked up an 8" Hunter. I only put a few arrows through it in the basement but it does seem to shoot a bit nicer. The bow now falls slightly forward in my hand which feels great and seemed to reduce any torque I imparted on it. We'll see for sure how it shoots after I get the new mod installed and everything retuned.
