I wouldn\u2019t be too worried about the up \/ down movements, this is quite acceptable and your stabiliser should sort this out.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Another part is the \u201cOutrigger\u201d, $35.\u00a0 This cool piece of kit allows you to use your stabiliser and the \u201cTorqueless\u201d\u00a0 It can also be used to offset your stabiliser.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The third element of the Clarks Archery system is the \u201cChooser\u201d, $13.\u00a0 When used with the \u201cOutrigger\u201d and the \u00a0\u201cTorqueless\u201d you can try different stabilisers, it can also add about 20mm to your stabiliser.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I handed the system around to a good few archers, both compound and recurvers, in my local club and they all thought it was a great visual aid and helped them to see what was happening to their bows as they shot.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>All three elements can be purchased for $65 including tax and shipping from <a href=\"http:\/\/clarksarchery.com\/clarksarchery\/\" target=\"_blank\">clarksarchery.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I have to say, these are very clever pieces of equipment, and a must for the archer that wants to improve on their shooting to eliminate torque, or any trainer teaching archery students.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the hardest things to do in archery is to try and see what you are doing wrong..
