I really like it. I was wanting to try one for awhile and then mflood told me of his experience with the ss and pushed me over the edge on it. It looks a little funny the way it attaches offset but that also makes it more effective because more of the weight is off to the side so the side bar doesn't need kicked out as far. It's adjustments are infinite. All in all a pretty solid product with some advantages over the competition.

Glad to hear, I'm right there with ya. What made you go with the stasis over the other options? The biggest thing I've been wondering though is does the design with the Saturn Dampeners and carbon rod reduce as much vibration and noise as they look like they would? They just flat out look like an effective design.

I just wanted to try something other than Bee Stinger and Stokerized has good reports. On the rx-1 turbo is pretty difficult to tell because it's pretty dead in hand imo. I did throw it on one of my older Hoyt turbos and it seemed pretty effective all around and dampening vibration and increasing hold. I have the 15" and while it works well I'd like to give the 19" a go to see the difference.

What exactly was it doing? I've done several of the Rx 1's and Williams turbo and haven't had any really strange issues yet.

What rest, arrow, fetching, draw length and poundage?

Qad rest
Spartan arrows 300 spine cut @28” 50g insert
Blazers
29”
#70
Have tuned hundreds of bows and when I tried everything I mean everything normal for a Hoyt, and even with rest high it still had the tail high kick. About pulled my hair out. Finally found a thread where this was seen in a carbon defiant turbo a couple time and low and behold it fixed it. Completely ass backward from any Hoyt I’ve seen

Looks great
I almost got one of these, but the PSE camp would've locked me up
Lol

I ended up settling on 3 rear stab disk weights and 2 front
Seems to hold bow stable best for me there, I my short ata bow

I missed the dog in this video though
:)

Are you turkey hunting with this?
Mine starts tomorrow

Undecided on the turkey hunting. It will depend if I have time to get it dialed by then, but probably.

Pretty sure I'm going to give these broadheads a go this year in addition to my nap Killzones ( at least until the new ulmer's come out). These are 100 grain kudu point contours. The second picture is the 100 grain versus the 125.

I was wanting to give the Iron Will I try but I generally shoot hundred grain broadheads and I don't like the noise that vented blades make. I may give them a try anyway, but so far I'm resisting the urge.

I opted for the iron will 125 vented

Will Get solid when they come out for sure, for same reasons you mentioned about noise

I took pics of my b stinger and my stokerized for reference
Both bows are identical other than finishing

You can see the stokerized is way closer to the center which is great for busting through thicker wind fall areas, attaching to back of pack, or even tree stand hunting. Imo

Both bows feel the same in the hand the way they are set up
