Snubbers..Does size matter?

[Speedy]

I have two new Luhr-Jensen 8" snubbers in package. It says Dipsy Diver Snubber. I have new divers also that I bought to use with these.
Question: Are these okay to use alone with the 10lb rigger ball? Or is there something stronger or better. I'm a little nervous about banging the ball solid on flood deby logs, pier parts.
Thanks
Speedy

No don’t use dipsey diver snubbers on downriggers They make snubbers specifically for downrigger use I use Amish Outfitter 6” snubbers work great on my high speed Cannons Dreamweaver also makes a good downrigger ball snubber
