ABSTRACT:
In order to provide enhanced performance from fletching, a stabilizer is operatively associated with an arrow shaft to be moveable from a launch position near the tip of an arrow at one end thereof to a flight position near the nock of the arrow at the other end thereof. The stabilizer includes a slide collar disposed on the shaft for sliding movement therealong and having a plurality of radial vanes each with a leading edge and a trailing edge as well as a reinforcing extension forwardly of the leading edges of the vanes and extending rearwardly at least to the trailing edges thereof. By limiting the stabilizer to sliding movement along the shaft from the launch position to the flight position, a bow having a riser may be provided with a launcher mounted on the riser to resiliently grip the stabilizer with the vanes forward of the riser during launch.
