How Important is a Stabilizer? - Before You Adjust

[@bs081502bs]

Good info, but you need to kill the background music.

Okay thanks! Maybe not a bad idea

[@Nowhy]

At least this kind of generic background music.. some ambient like stuff without too many notes...

hmm, I need to try this. I've tried to superweight my bow and I can shoot a few good shots but then I start to get tired and the lactic acid builds up and then I get bad dip bangs. also too light and i can't get it to settle down for nothing but sometimes the shot is amazing and hits dead center with no problem. I wonder if a 15" rear bar is better than a 12" for a 30" front.

[@pinpointarchery2125]

So yes there is a balance or sweet spot you need to find. Some days it feels like magic. The bow moves but you still hit middle. It might be a form issue or balance in general. By taking off all stabs it makes it easier to find the best set up. Therefore then when you ad the stabs back you will feel when you improve or worsen your movement. 15 inch might help more but like I said that might optimize not solve the problem.

Why are you checking the balance point? You added equal weights front and rear. The balance point doesn’t change. What would happen if you add more weight front to rear? Your balance point changes. Then what would you do?

[@pinpointarchery2125]

Good question. I check it because if I want to ad weight I can ad it equally without changing the balance point. So if I want to ad 5 oz I can ad them and check the balance point and move them around until it balances on that point. Hope it makes sense

[@jeffspencer7489]

@@pinpointarchery2125 I understand what you’re doing. I’m curious what you do if the balance isn’t equal or the same?

Thanks for this! That’s an interesting way to go about it.
