He sounds like a guy I could learn a lot from. He makes a great point regarding not rushing. We don't "let down" because we probably concede we'll do better on the next pull. 😁
I was taught the same way. I was also taught to re-nock your arrow after each let down. A good habit to have to prevent a very shitty situation. Good shooting. Two more days and ill be in the woods ready to sling an arrow 🤘🤘🤘
Its also very important to re knock the arrow when u let down. Your arrow will fall off the string at the worst time. Or cause to not have a good shot. It may not fall off at the range but when your in the field it will. It's happened to me a couple times. Idk much but that is a good habit to have. Just saying
Even shooting a longbow! This is important to not “snap shoot”! Take your time and enjoy making a great shot and doing it right!!! Not being overbowed with weight is more important on traditional archery than compounds.
Some folks have quick shot cycles. The most important part is consistency. I'm pretty quick, and some would say I snap shoot, but i still put em home nearly every time.
@@trevormassoth2802 This. I actually think if you're shooting trad, it's better to learn to not hold your shot. Know where you're gonna hit before you even draw, so you can loose as soon as you hit anchor. It's how I learned to shoot and how I teach to shoot. That being said, I don't think there is anything wrong with holding shots if that's the way you want to/like to shoot or feel you get more success out of. Archery is not just a skill, it's an art form. Everyone has their own little style that works for them with enough practice.
Draw, aim,shoot just that quick. The more you think about it..your shot will probably be off a little. At least for me. Trad shooting is like throwing a ball to your buddy. You've done it so many times,you don't have to aim to throw a ball..inless you never throw one. Compound shooters need to be able to know the yardage so you can pick the right pin,or with single pin sights, you can turn your adjustment to your perspective yardage. With trad bows, you shoot at what you see, like tossing a corn hole bag or horse shoe or tossing a ball etc. 45th bow season for me..osage/sinew bow with arrow,tipped with flint arrowhead, fletched with turkey feathers from harvested bird.. all made by me, in my man cave, got me a big 11pt buck this season from the ground. So easy a cave man can do it! Lol If he couldn't... you wouldn't be here? I don't use modern anything because when I have,I don't get my jollys or feeling of satisfaction because it was too easy..try traditional archery if you feel you need more of a challenge. Just sayin
Nah. You only have a small window with trad bows, you aren't holding it past 10-15 seconds unless you are shooting low poundage. I pull a 60lb recurve and after 5 seconds, I'm vibrating to the point of second-guessing a release. Snap-shoot or 3 second hold is what I do.
@@johnnytidwell can confirm the warranty was good. The new one slipped one time and I sold it. Like I said, more force on tightening that tiny lock screw might have done the job. I replaced it with a carter release over a year ago and it's never done anything strange.
@DeltaMikeNoshoot yea, Carter for me. I Shoot the wise choice and have for 5 years. I don't understand why so many people swap their releases every year or two. You have to re learn a whole new shot cycle and perfect it. After a few thousand shots i reckon ive stopped punching the trigger. It really takes years to get your shot under control. My experience anyway.

What does the click mean? I just recently got into archery and this is the first compound bite I’ve ever had. I got a Diamond Edge Max. I also have that click happen sometimes. I’d be super grateful to have someone teach me properly as everyone I know doesn’t really have the time.
Depends on your release, we need to know what you are using. There are alot on the market and they can function quiet differently. I can help after i have that info
I want to make sure that I’m understanding this correctly. The click is from the cam right? I can’t shoot compound bows because I have a bad shoulder. I have shot them, but I have to shoot a very low draw weight.
Just to explain further, 65 pounds not a problem, 95 pounds not a problem unless I’m using a trigger. It’s the additional draw length when it cams over my shoulder pops out of socket and I better just hope that I’m aiming at a safe location at that time because otherwise I’m going to severely hurt myself.
The click is from the release not the cam. You have a real problem if your cam is clicking like that it’s usually from something funky with the limb pocket. A few releases now have a click when it’s getting close to firing position it’s designed that way. The Onnex clicker is one example (thumb button) but this looks like a hinge release
It can be the way you hold the bow if you grip the bow in the middle of you're hand it happens a lot try holding it more with the right half of you're palm
I've done it too. Have had two archery shops tell me when u hold the bow u want your knuckles at more of a 45 degree angle. If u understand that should help
Some hinge releases have a click. The click is a reference to know that the release will fire after it travels “X” distance. The Hinge 2 from Ultraview, you can adjust the distance between click and fire. Some hinges are set and not adjustable.
Does a peep sight help for shooting with both eyes open? I shoot right handed but forwhatever reason my face doesnt let me close my left eye by itself. So i shoot with both eyes open and sometimes my eyes dont adjust and my shots are far left. I could switch to shooting left handed because im ambidextrous but then id have to buy a new bow since the handmedown i have is a righty
Get an eye patch my brother had this issue, If you think you would be a better shot with the other hand go for it but I would maybe try it before going all in on a new bow
Shooting with both eyes open is a good thing. In the end, it all comes down to what you can do accurately and consistently. There's a lot of ways to do archery.
I would recommend you find a local shop and get your hands on a couple bows and find what one you like the best. There isn't 1 bow that's one size fits all.
Hes got a clicker on his bow that makes an audible click when the bow reaches a certain draw length. Its really helpful at long ranges, especially with traditional equipment. Some people use them to learn their shot cycle and have an audible cue when to break their shot.
The click they’re talking about is in the release. So the way a hinge work is you pull through it and by design, it will rotate. So as the release rotates, there’s a point where it will “click” (some set their release smooth/no click) once the click sounds, it means you’re release is about to go off, that’s when you just sit and relax and really aim true.
You probably know more than me about archery. But I wouldn't hold my release like that. One you could punch yourself in the mouth real easy if that release or bow failed. Two you're more likely to jerk the string and throw your shot off.
@@EvanRoshad feel like it's pretty easy to understand. But you probably don't really understand how posture and technique affect the flight or point of aim/impact of your arrow, and you probably hold your release like a goofy ass too.
@lazapie lmao come meet me at a TAC event then, make sure you bring your hemorrhoid creme since you wanna be butthurt. Come back when you have something real to contribute
Never understood why people insist on using releases, the best release is your fingers, those mechanical releases interfere too much with the draw cycle IMO
I genuinely dont see how anything makes a difference except for having the same full draw position and the same release drawing back should have 0 difference on your accuracy
If you’re dumping it after the click instead of pulling through, I agree. If you’re shooting it correctly and pulling through, try running it without the click. That was a game changing moment for me. It’s a target only release for me though, as I still prefer a thumb button for hunting.
Why you all try and make archery so damn complicated? Quit trying to reinvent the most basic and all time oldest weapon form. It kills me to see this. So ridiculous. You're just taking the joy out of it, and making it more like a job.
As an instinctive and traditional shooter, I think you're an idiot lol. Compound bows with sights, attachments and all these other advances have made bows more accurate and longer distances. The science is there, it's not even an argument anymore. That being said, I do think over doing the modern stuff takes something special away from archery personally, but don't trash it (or the people doing it) just cause you don't like it.
Sounds like you miss the point of this. Unless you record yourself you won’t catch every mistake you make during draw and release. They are pointing out the issue to help him fix it.
It's the release whenever he is at full draw it clicks before the arrow leaves the bow it's so you don't know exactly when you release the arrow makes it so you don't anticipate the shot

The hinge release he's using clicks when it becomes "hot." Watch a youtube on how to use a hinge release
