RamRods Archery Owners Josh Smith & Joe Fanchin sit down with Tokyo Olympics Archery Mixed Team Silver Medalist Steve Wijler (Netherlands) to talk about what he looks for in his Stabilizer set up, how he came back from almost quitting the sport, and what the historic first Mixed Team Olympics medal means to him.
In 2021 when we made this episode Steve was using VEKTOR stabilizers, but now he uses the ULTRA V4 stabilizers - check them out here: https://ramrodsarchery.com/collections/target-bow-stabilizers/products/ultra-v4
