1. To aid in the vertical stabilization of your bow. Some prefer the bow to rest perfectly in your grip, no tilting backwards or forwards.
Some would rather the bow tilt out a little,, its really up to you.
Some bows need more help then others, doesnt mean anything about the bow.
2. As far as vibration reduction? thats also up to you.
I use a 10" Doinker Multi-Rod on a Reflex Caribou xt4000 it needs it.
On my Mathews Conquest no stab is needed. I really prefer the Reflex though, as it is a much smoother bow.
When using such stabs for hunting I also like to use a quick connect.
Good luck with it all though.
