Title: B-stinger or Doinker dish which is better?
Post by: stormin85 on September 26, 2011, 12:10:22 PM: Looking at getting one of these two, just wondering if anyone has shot with both, or for those of you who have or do currently shoot one or the other what do you like about it?

Any info would be great, i haven't ever shot either, so i don't know if there is any real difference, considering the overall design is very similar.

Post by: stormin85 on September 26, 2011, 12:51:59 PM: thats kinda what i thought, with the bstinger being solid one piece with no rubber to soak up the vibration, more or less, i didn't think it would have the vibration elimination like the doinker, let alone the weight distribution options.

Post by: stormin85 on September 26, 2011, 01:04:36 PM: another question, which length stab are you shooting? i figured the 10" would be good, but if the shorter one is good i might go that route so it isn't sticking out to far, however i know a number of guys are hunting with the 12" models so it may not be to bad.

just trying to figure out before i drop $90 something on a stab, really only want to have one lol

Post by: stormin85 on September 26, 2011, 01:25:26 PM: i was looking at those too, i could always get one of the bowjax silencers to go on the stab, but doinker also has vibration and noise eliminating attachments right?

Post by: BULLBLASTER on September 26, 2011, 01:43:15 PM: The dish part of the sldoinker is make of rubber. To absork vibration. My target bow uses a 12 inch stab. Right now on my hunting bow I have a 12 inch stab with 2.5 inch extension and an offset mount. Just under 15 total.

are you located in or near Spokane? If so we could meet up and you could try my doinker out.

Post by: stormin85 on September 26, 2011, 02:51:46 PM: no but i'm over there pretty often, my hunting buddy lives in milan, i'll get your info and maybe we can meet up and go shoot at one of the ranges around there? i've been on a mission to convince the wife to move east so maybe sooner than later i'll be on that side permanantly instead of for half of the year back and forth lol

another question, who in WA carries a good selection of them, or have you had to order most of their stuff off line?
