There are a million options when it comes to archery stabilizers. Without the proper understanding what they do and how you can use them to your benefit, you may make a mistake and purchase the wrong type of stabilizer for your bow.
In this video I give you the info and explain what the main differences are in the types of archery stabilizers out on the market and help direct you to the stabilizer best for you.

Great video, Jake. I recently got my first long rod, and wish I’d have seen this first, rather than the more advanced videos you’d done previously, selecting a beginner stabiliser seemed like some magic formula! I will say that there’s an obvious gap in price, my long rod was £47, and every rod below that price acted more like a tuning fork! They vibrated so much for so long after the shot that shooting was not a nice experience. Thanks for your hard work producing these videos.

When you mention 90% of Archers use a 30”, does this commonly mean they have a 26” rod with a 4” extension? When going with a fixed vbar mount I see there are 40 and 45 degree which do you prefer? Lastly do certain brands of stabilizers utilize a certain thread pitch- might there be a use on your app for a table/chart for reference. I am shopping used equipment on eBay and many sellers aren’t that informative when asking these questions. I did see that there are adapters to make any situation work but I see a lot of sets for sale minus the vbar mount and it would be cool to know which ones are compatible vs. all the time spent shopping for adapters.

That shirt is the most awesome piece of merch I've seen from any youtube channel that I follow, I want one. In the old days most bow risers had 5/16 threads but my Hoyt had 1/4" insert. Almost all weights were 1/4" whether Hoyt or not. I used a generic stabilizer with 5/16 male threads and an adapter to 1/4" to go into my riser. For our students we used to buy 1/2" diameter aluminum tube at the hardware store and epoxy threaded rod in it. We usually made 24" to 30" lengths but the tube came in 6' length so one time we built a 6' stabilizer for a gag. It was too long to use. This was back when v-bars were first invented, we made our own brackets out of 1/4"x1" aluminum bar from the hardware store. We made dampeners with washers, short pieces of threaded rod and rubber washers from the plumbing area of the hardware store.

Beiter offers an 1/4-5/16 Adapter for their V-Box-System (the V-Box is 5/16). For "bulky" vs thin weights I want to point out, that the further out the weight is from the dampener, the higher the leverage the weight has on the dampener which means that you can have a stronger dampening with the same weight or same dampening with less weight. You can increase leverage of weight on the dampener by adding spacers, e.g. plastic ones) between the dampener and the weight. Hope it is clear what I mean.

And if you want to reduce the stack size even more, you can always use tungsten weights (though they're generally super expensive) :) RamRods does indeed have the adapters/reducers.

I'd always been curious about stabilisers, and last week a guy at my club let me borrow his 9" short rod. My bow instantly felt more comfortable. I bought some 5/16 threaded rod, and inserts. Designed myself a short rod, which I 3d printed, and cast myself a resin weight for the end. It's damn near perfect for what I need, and feels great for me

Thanks for the clear description. What I’m actually keen to learn is the best technique to actually setting up and tightening the whole setup. I’ve just bought my first and struggle to get the v bar perfectly perpendicular to the riser. Do you build the stabiliser first or just add the v bar to the riser first, for example.

Basically only a couple of American stabs brands use 5/16 for the weights side (Doinker, Ram rods?): most other brands, even high-end products, use 1/4 for recurves (Wiawis, Fivics, Shibuya, Gillo, Shrewd)...

@pequodexpress Жыл бұрын

@@JakeKaminskiArchery That's what I was hoping, 30" for both my son and me.. I found another source that has options for both the sidebars (10", 12", 14") and the extension (3", 4", 5"). From your videos, I assume sidebars of 12" will be good for both of us, but what about extension length, 4" or 5", or does it matter that much?

Not all Riser use the 5/16-24 Thred. All of the OK Riseres, build in Germany uses M8/1 Thred. Its is Posible to screw in a 5/16 Stabalizer in, !!!but!!! Never get it out.

I've never used a stabiliser: nor has anyone explained why I would need to, or how stabilisers work. I can't help feeling that, since - at four-and-a-half minutes into this video, you haven't really touched on these two things - you've overlooked the most fundamental questions: Q1 - Why stabilise your bow? Q2 - How does stabilising work?

@MarkRLeach Жыл бұрын

I am sorry Jake, but you have completely missed the point of what the stabiliser does. Due to Newton's second law of motion (every action has an opposite action), the fact that the arrow is launched from behind the riser and the riser is not symmetrical there is a tendency for the riser to twist in the hand: to torque during the shot. The stabiliser increases the moment of inertia and so reduces the bow twisting in the hand. To show the effect, rapidly twist the riser (looking down) left then right. Add the stabiliser and feel how much more difficult it is to twist the bow.

That’s what I was insinuating with the whole rotational inertial resistance deal. Same Same.

@jota15888 Жыл бұрын

Unnecessarily long comment.... For short, Jake clearly explains the working principle of stabilization around 6:40 with the tightrope walker example... "To stabilize you". There's no need to go that deep into physics when you naturally understand the notions with a simple example.
