As far as the bow jolting forward, you might be on the right track there, not sure what you mean by jolting though. You want the bow to jump out of your hand upon release. You don't want to grab the bow as soon as you pull the "trigger", this is what a wrist sling is for.
get a big target and stand close, aim, then pull your face away and release. slowly get your string closer to your face every time till you can have the string against your face and nose without closing your eyes. im assuming that your doing it because your scared of the bow and having the string next to your face. the more you shoot the more comfortable you will be with what the bow is doing. so practice practice practice!!!!!
Since you didn't ask here's my if you get a string stopper and string scilencers do not waste your $ on a vibration reducing stabilizer such as the limbsaver. It won't do anything to help. There are 2 different worlds of stabilizers. 1) the vibration reduction kind 2) the stabilizing kind. Unless you bow is an absolute rattletrap the vibration reduction kind is worthless. Look at b-stinger stokerized smooth stability stabilizers ect. They will actually make your bow hold better on target and fight torque resulting in better more consistent shooting. Yes they are more expensive but will help you tremendously. As long as you open your eyes.
yah thats the stabilizer, it reduces shock in the bow. the one you have is really short and limbsaver make the same one in a much longer version that will help stabilize your bow more and reduce shock more. so it doesnt feel like it wants to jump out of your hand as much.

Are the wisker biskets any good? I am not sure if I am likeing it. . . what do you recomend bloodhound?
it is a stabilizer. theres really no "right and wrong" kind. just good and bad. j/k here is a link to the one i use. it may be a little extreme for some but put 100 shots through your bow with one of these and i guarentee you wont go back to the vibration reduction kind.http://www.smoothstability.com/HuntingStabs.htmthe wisker bisuit is a great beginner rest but you will soon want to go to a fall away. yes archery is expensive!
