stabilisers

[Papalazaru]

I'm borrowing stabilisers at the mo as I just started the sport up this year. I am now looking to but my own set can you recomend a decent set for around £100.
Thanks

Yep, but they may not suit you!! Best bet is to go to your local archery outlet and try all they have before you make your decision. Failing that, try your club mates stabs before you buy on recommendations of others!!

I would go for a Clickers long rod and a pair cartel twins check out Grahams web site on Clickers Archery - Archery Equipment Retailer Based In Norwich, UK

I like Doinkers.

I am in a similar position myself at the moment. Unfortunately, I can't get to a dealers to try a massive selection. So I intend to go for something that is fully adjustable on thev-bars, such as the Arten or AGF sets. This should allow you to adjust the stabilisers to suit you, whereas the ones with fixed angles have to be shot to see if they suit.

P.S. Arten are cheaper but the interlocking AGF v-bar setup looks better.

Just bought a set of easton ace stabs (27" longrod and 2x 11" shorts) off of Ebay,(for £50) they come with end weights and I already have a agf V bar so hopefully these will work out ok......

Easton make good stuff you should be alright.If you find 27 inches a bit short to get the balence you like with a reasonable end weight you can always get an extender bar.

Personally I like Arc Systeme stabilisers, which unfortunately are not really carried in the UK. These are carbon longrods of very good quality, with a v-bar which is not only adjustable up and down, but also can slide *the entire length of the long-rod*, which really lets you get the right set-up cheaply. I would recommend the one now called "Carbon Pro Light" as it is good quality without being too expensive. Take a look on www.arcsysteme.fr , (hope the link works). I have shot these for years, and prefer them to all others including Beiter, Fomax, Seb Flute and ACE VRS.

A glance through one of the other threads on stabilisers might be useful when you are considering how to set your new stabilisers up. http://www.archery-interchange.com/f...tml#post187748

You will undoubtedly need a 5-6" extender with your "11" shorts", very basically part of the theory on stabilisers is that the weight pivots around the throat of the grip. With short rods that long mounted on the front of the riser they will be pivoting about 6" behind the grip!

Seems like a decent deal to me. Admittedly, Worthipa is right about the long extender, but theres no harm in that. I believe that is the kind of setup Michele Frangilli recommends in THA.
