Abstract: An inertial archery bow stabilizer and vibration dampner is disclosed. A stud is rigidly embedded in the archery bow and has an energy disipating rod fixed to and projecting forwardly of the stud. The rod is received within an encapsulating sealed cylinder having an internal chamber filled with a viscous fluid in which the rod is disposed. At its outer end and externally thereof, the cylinder is provided with another stud to which the archer may afix a selected stabilizing weight. The stabilizer is effective to limit bow movement during arrow cast and rapidly dampen and attenuate energy released as characterized by dampened bow vibration.
