Stabilizer side weights

Can anyine help???

I have a Doinker uni offset mount to use for balancing the weight of my sight. I want some weights for it but cant find anyone in the UK that has them. For various reasons I don't want to use a twin rod. I've seen various USA shooters with similar set ups and using weights but have drawn a blank where they get them.

Any ideas would be gratefully received.

Quicks catalogue, page 34 shows weights for Arten and KAP stabilisers. Would they work?

Hi Geoff.
I need quite a bit of weight and it needs to be threaded as for a stabilizer - 1/4" I think?

Don't know where to get one, but if you know the thread & weight you want I'm sure that there must be someone who could make one for you.

What you need is an offset bar and weight. It screws into the stab hole or if you shoot a Bowtech, the rear hole!! and the weight /doinker .screws into that. It comes with a bush that takes 1/4 or 5/16 and sets the dynamic balance to perfection. I would tell you where to get one but I'm not allowed to as this would be "advertising" They are very cheap and effective though!

Thanks...........for nothing then as I'm none the wiser partic' if you're trying to be cryptic!!!!!

I assume you must own/work for an archery shop as you are trying to sell me stuff I don't need. I have the bar - I want the weights.

My details show what bow I shoot so unless there has been some cosmic FXXK UP M-E-R-L-I-N still spells Merlin and not Bowtech? And Merlin have the same rear hole fittings too.

I have a pic of what I am after and will try and post it later

if the item you are after is the Doinker uni-bar mount.....



Bowsports list it..

http://www.bowsports.com/acatalog/Doinker.html towards the bottom of this page

Your local supplier should also be able to obtain one for you..

Tarkwin - this is what I have, I want a weight mass to screw into it. A fairly heavy one to balance off the sight and scope

apparently any 5/16 threaded weight, doinker or rod will do..
