Default Need help with new bow set up...

I just put money down on an outback and I need some input as what to put on it. I was thinking of a QSWB rest and I want lighted sights. I had cobra lighted sights on my old bow.
Still don`t have a new quiver, or stabalizer picked yet. What would you recommend for a set up?

Pine,
First congrats on the new bow!
One thing I will address with you quickly is the lighted sites thing.
Obviously you are a guy who likes bright pins, but have you seen the new styles of fiber optic pins with the wrapped fibers yet? There are a number of manufacturers who make a version and they gather a TON of light with no batteries or bulbs needed.
Far more light than you will ever need for any legal or ethical shot in low light.

I agree with Matt. Look at one of the wrapped sights. I really like my Cosmic Air Lite by Impact Archery. 2 1/2 feet of wrapped green fiber, more than enough light to hunt with. I have to wrap a black scrunchie around it for 3D. That one is a movable site, but they make a fixed one, and a couple different styles of wrapped sights. For a rest, i like my Bodoodle, but i think im going to go with a Trophy Taker pretty quick. Mathews quivers are nice, but for the money, i think there heavy. A kwikee carries your arrows just as good, and if you take it off when you shoot(like i do)the bracket weighs MUCH less. Stablizers id go with the SIMS module stablizer. They normally balance pretty good, and you can put one of the modules in the back adapter hole for even more balance. I cant think of anything else right off hand, but this should be a good start for ya.
