I was looking on you tube for products shown at the ATA show. I saw this product and thought it seemed like it would possible work pretty well. May even be able to add more weight to your pull on your bow. Take a look and post what you think about it. I put there web page on here as well. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPHJwyWC3T4www.riparchery.com/index.html

this is a great tool... may help me through my rehab!! I looked on the site but didn;t see price point?/ I e-mailed them to see what they are selling for and the responded very quickly. Here is what they say. They sell for $89. We encourage you to tell a proshop near you you'd like to see them carried in their shop. Or tell us of a proshop near you, and we'll try to get them there.
We do have a limited number of unpackaged products that we are willing to sell online, the cost to order from us directly is $99, plus $3 shipping. Let us know if we can help you any further.
Thank you for your inquiry
Monica RIP archeryWith this being a new product I can see the price going up after the demand for these starts to rise. jamaltwy good luck with everything and have a speedy recovery

Wow, I think that would be really great for long target sessions as well. As far as pulling more weight, people have to be aware that it is the "bow" shoulder that is subjected to a lot of injury from archery as well, so they should be carefull about adding extra poundage "just because". I like it. Good find Buckshot.

Good point SPIKER If anyone does purchase this please let me know how you like it. It does seem like it would help keep your shot more steady on those long shots and like SPIKER said those long target sessions.

Me and my hunting partner both purchased it today and I will let you guys now how it works out I just liked the fact you could have free hand to range a deer or elk or use a call to stop them before the shot along with being able to hold it back longer that alone is worth the 89 dollar price. thanks buckshot for the heads up

I did receive them in the mail yesterday pretty fast shipping, first impressions on the rip shot are so-so i tried to fit it to my arm the best way i could come up with and once that was done i went to draw my bow and ouch the bone on the inside of me elbow was digging into the cup so off came the rip shot and i went through bending it until i found i could draw it back with out digging into my elbow as of right now it dos not hurt at all to draw back but i would like it to feel a little tighter some more fine tunning and i will have that beat and once you do get it back it definitely is solid you notice that right away your sight picture slows down allot and i do feel allot more stable. It is hard getting used to drawing it back with out the use of a wrist style release probably because i have been using one for 15 years and this is all new to me so i need to give it some time to really fine tune it and get used to using it before i can give a good review. this is just a rough initial. it looks and feels solid in the quality of material used also i spoke with Rip Shot they said they are going to be putting a video up to show people how to bend and shape it to your arm better that should be up in a couple of weeks
