B-stingers
« on: May 11, 2012, 02:28:55 PM »
I shot a bow with a B-stinger stabilizer on it the other day and was impressed.  Now looking at them I'm not sure of the oz. i should get i want the 8in but not sure how heavy to get. Any thoughts would help.
O ya and i shoot the helim set at 65lbs and a 30in draw.

THANKS

I shoot a "smooth stability" stabilizer on my hunting rig which is kinda the same concept as the b-stinger. I have 13oz up front and love it. The more weight you put up front the "steadier" its gonna feel. :twocents:

As a general rule you want just enough that your bow slowly falls/rotates forward after the shot.  Without having your bow here it's very hard to tell you a weight or combination weight and length.  Most Mathews shoot best with a good bit of weight.  What that is for your set-up may require a trip to your local pro-shop that stocks them.

another Smooth Stability shooter.  I'm in the process of adding another ring, as my bow acts like it wants to fall back on the shot.  each bow is different.  you should be able to experiment with extra weight on you B-stinger with a long 1/4-20 bolt and some washers.  once you find the ideal weight, order up the correct weights from Bstinger.
