2. Setup and Installation

Installing your Trophy Ridge Blitz Stabilizer is a simple process. Ensure your bow is unloaded and pointed in a safe direction before beginning installation.

1. Identify Mounting Point: Locate the stabilizer mounting hole on the front of your compound bow's riser. This is typically a threaded hole.
2. Attach Stabilizer: Carefully thread the Trophy Ridge Blitz Stabilizer into the mounting hole. Turn clockwise until it is hand-tight. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the threads.
3. Install Wrist Sling (Optional): If desired, attach the included wrist sling to the bow. The leather mount typically secures under the stabilizer or to an auxiliary mounting point on the riser. Ensure the sling is adjusted to fit your wrist comfortably and securely.
4. Verify Security: Gently tug on the stabilizer and wrist sling to ensure they are firmly attached and do not wobble.

3. Operating Instructions

The Trophy Ridge Blitz Stabilizer operates passively to improve your bow's performance. Once installed, it requires no further adjustment during use.

• Enhanced Balance: The stabilizer's weight and design help to balance the bow, reducing hand torque and improving aiming stability.
• Vibration Reduction: The rubber construction absorbs residual vibration from the bowstring and limbs after a shot, leading to a quieter and smoother shooting experience.
• Wrist Sling Use: If installed, the wrist sling provides an additional layer of security, preventing the bow from dropping after release and allowing for a relaxed grip during the shot.

4. Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and continued performance of your stabilizer.

• Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the stabilizer with a damp cloth to remove dirt, dust, and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber material.
• Inspect for Damage: Periodically check the rubber for cracks, tears, or excessive wear. Inspect the mounting threads for any signs of damage or corrosion.
• Check Tightness: Before each use, ensure the stabilizer is securely tightened to the bow. If it feels loose, re-tighten by hand.
• Storage: Store the stabilizer in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Trophy Ridge Blitz Stabilizer, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

Problem: Stabilizer feels loose or wobbles.

Solution: Ensure the stabilizer is fully threaded and hand-tightened into the bow's mounting hole. Check for any debris in the threads that might prevent a secure fit. If threads are stripped, discontinue use and seek professional repair or replacement.

Problem: Stabilizer does not seem to reduce vibration or noise effectively.

Solution: Verify that the stabilizer is securely attached. Inspect the rubber material for any significant damage or degradation that might compromise its dampening properties. Ensure the stabilizer is the correct size and weight for your bow setup, as individual bow characteristics can influence performance.
