Dude, pink socks are like super important. So I vote 1 !!!
I knew it![8D]

Getting back to the regulary scheduled program.... I have a question. On a lighter weight bow, does the added weight of a stabilizer help at all in quieting the shot???

If you are shooting down from a treestand they would seem to lose all of their stabilizing effectiveness. The weight is no longer out front but hanging down at some angle. I don't use one myself but if I did I would get a super cool looking one that had some noise dampenening function also.

In the old days when bows shot 180 fps and were noisy as hell, they help.
On new bows that shoot 250+ I dont care how noisy it is, the arrow will be there quicker than I would do Jessica Alba, If you keep it under 25 yds.
And I dont care how quiet your bow is, at 25+ yds, in the woods, a deer will hear it coming.

New bows dont need them.
