Being relatively new to bowhunting, my friend is just figuring out the proper technique and form for shooting his bow and one of the first things we talked about is the proper way to bend your arm that holds the bow. I think a lot of people shoot with their arm straight out and this is one quick change that can make an immediate difference. Put a slight, natural bend in your arm and you’ll be shooting straighter before you know it. Check out T-Bone’s video to get some additional pointers…

Unfortunately usually there is no such thing. The real key to accuracy is practice and tuning. But that being said, there are still certain products that along with the aforementioned work, can be used to improve your accuracy. One of these accessories is a stabilizer.

What does a stabilizer do?

  • It absorbs energy, thereby it reduces vibration and noise from your bow
  • It adds mass to your bow, which reduces the movement  of your bow when you hold it, helping you hold steady

For some in depth information, watch this video from T-Bone’s blog about how stabilizers works and how to choose the right one for your bow. Hopefully adding the proper stabilizer to your bow rig will help you along the journey of improving your archery accuracy. It certainly has helped me.
