These performance variables are required specifically at the trunk region, shoulder girdle, and for both arms to ensure shooting accuracy, and score of the shoots which eventually determine the winner (Ertan, 2009; Soylu, Ertan, & Korkusuz, 2006). Besides strength and endurance, postural stability is another crucial variable in determining the outcome of every shot. An archer’s skill is evidenced in the ability to shoot the arrow to the specific target within a specific time. To achieve this, athletes need to minimize their movements in each step or phase to avoid unnecessary movements which can reduce stability, thus, minimizing the chances of hitting the centre target. An archer’s movements must be as precise as possible, coping fast with postural instability (Kuo, Chi, Yu & Tsung, 2005; Ertan, 2009; Ertan, Kentel, Tumer, & Korkusuz, 2003; Kuo & Chi, 2005). 2018-02-12T07:54:07Z 2018-02-12T07:54:07Z 2012 Article Movement, Health & Exercise (MoHE), vol.1(1), 2012, pages 49-60 2231-9409 (Print) 2289-9510 (Online) http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/51632 en Kementerian Pendidikan Tinggi (KPT), Malaysia Innovative Manufacturing, Mechatronics & Sports Lab (iMAMS), Universiti Malaysia Pahang
