I must be missing something  :dunno:  Why would it take longer to get a shot off using a wrist sling?

Bite Me!  :chuckle: 

I think some folks are thinking it is a cinch strap and not a sling.  There should be all kinds of room to quickly slide your hand underneath a sling.  I'll take the improved accuracy over being two tenths of a second faster on the draw.

Some sling get all wacky when you put the bow in the case.

The less equipment, the better.  If you must use a sling to be accurate, well great.  I am as lethal without one.  My back hurts every year from packing out.   ;)

Here's my "meat catcher".  It's an 06 Hoyt Powertech, that's fed upon a few NY & Ct whitetail, a turkey, a few squirrels & rabbits, and one blacktail.  As much as I want a new bow, I won't replace her until she has an elk under her belt.  :tup:

10 1/2 inches of stabilizer on that bow.  Exactly 12 inches of stab on my target bow.  Its within the rules.

Well that's no fun! :(

Is that your target stabilizer in the pic with your doe?  Thing looks lengthy.

so when I first looked at that stabilizer a woman was working behind the counter I ask to look at it she pops it out of the package and hands it to me.  I'm looking its pretty cool I ask how long is it she looks back at the package and says "mmmm my lord 10 1/2 inches good length". I replied "i'll take it"  she says "10 1/2 inches"?  "No i'll just buy stabilizer"
