Stabilizers
Stabilizers are rod-shaped extensions (optionally with weights and dampers at the end) that are screwed onto the bow (usually at the front). They are intended to ensure that the force of the limbs can effectively deviate during the release, via the stabilizer. This reduces the hand shock, as well as unsteadiness of the bow when shooting.
The decisive factor for the quality of the stabilizer is the material, or the quality with which the shock is absorbed and passed on. Ideally, after shooting, the bow should swing forward evenly.
You can often observe the swinging of the bow very well among Korean archers, such as Choi Misun (Berlin 2017).
