An Ultra Elite does not use parallel limb technology and thus has a definite forward kick at the shot. It also tends to twist just a little bit on the shot because of forward jump and the imbalance created by the sight, rest and cable guard being on the same side of the bow. Traditionally I use one v-bar on the left side of the bow to counteract this effect. However, with the Smooth Stability installed without a v-bar, the twist and jump were significantly less noticeable. The large radius perimeter weighting definitely holds an advantage in this case over a stabilizer that does not move the weight away from the center plane of the bow.

After a couple hundred of shots in fairly rapid succession (I was chronographing these shots with different fletchings) my left shoulder started to become fatigued. At this point I removed one of the weights and continued shooting without rest. It was easier to hold the bow up with the lighter weight, but the side to side and torque stability was noticably lessened. Towards the end of the day’s shooting I slowed down the shots and put the additional weight back on the stabilizer. When shooting an arrow approximately every thirty seconds, I felt no fatigue and received all the benefits of the heavier perimeter weighting.
