An alarmed whitetail is capable of moving more than four inches at the twang of a bowstring. In fact, through slow-motion video tape, it has been proven that an alert buck is capable of moving 12 to 24 inches to escape an arrow. Let us logic this matter out. Some modern bows are shooting 300 feet per second. According to neurologists, an arrow must travel at a velocity of 750 feet per second to make contact before any Big Game animal can drop, jump or twirl out of the way of a perfect shot.
String jumping is an archers worst nightmare.
Arrow speed in itself will not combat string jumping. Using a good stabilizer is often overlooked. A good rubber-loaded or hydraulic stabilizer system will absorb bow noise drastically. Always make sure a stabilizer is the perfect weight. A stabilizer should cause the bow to sit straight up and down in your extended hand.
