Hi,

It's me again with another question about bows.  I have been practicing
and I like my bow.  I have a question about stabilizers.  Are they worth
the cost (not that much) and do they work?  I notice I seem to let the bow
rise after I release.  I have the bow sighted in at 20 yards and am
practicing shooting at that range.  I have a tendency to shoot high
and believe it is due to the way I let the bow come up after release.
Will a stabilizer help.

If they are a good idea, what weight?  They seem to come in different
weights from 8oz-16oz for hunting.

Thanks,
Mark O'Shea
