I will give an overview of the alternatives from which we can choose when to open our bow. Not all fit in the same way to different methods to target we saw in a previous post, or the type of hunting you are practicing with best compound bow packages
According to the movement itself to open the arc:
Pull-push: The action begins with the arm bent bow and starts to stretch while pulling the rope. Fred Bear used this method, the main advantage for hunting consists of little movement perceived prey kick went wide.
On the other hand, it is not easy to get consistency in the opening, and in my opinion, is somewhat unsightly.
Swing-arm: With arm stretching arc, going up the bow while pulling the rope, reaching the height eye shortly before fully opening. This system is very fast and produces a fluid motion. It is particularly suited to instinctive shooting.
It has two drawbacks, the necessary movement is easier to detect prey, and overload excessively bows shoulder when they are powerful.
Set-arm: The action begins by placing the bow pointing toward the target, starting to pull the rope from the static position. It is well suited to hunting since the movement perceived the dam is almost nil. Also, it stands out as a very accurate method.
The only drawback about the "swing-arm" is that it is somewhat slower.
Depending on how to catch the rope:
Mediterranean style (split finger) is to place the index finger above and middle and ring below the neck. This method is by far the most big difference, used by elite archers as well as by the one who gets a bow first.
Advantages: The arc blades work more balanced. Release cleaner
Drawbacks: More chances of pinching the arrow and remove the arrow rest. The arrow is farther from the eye, making it harder to target without sight.
Apache style (3 under): The three fingers are placed below the neck. I believe the lack of popularity of this system is due to ignorance and speak from experience ... When I started to shoot with recurve, using "split finger", because I had never thought that I could do otherwise. One day, Peter said that I try to "three under" archers that many Americans used it with great success, and I loved the system. In any case, I discuss their pros and cons:
Advantages: It is almost impossible pinching the nock. The arrow is placed very close to the eye, facilitating to the shoulder and the "instinctive shooting". It is a more natural way to grab the rope, helping to open faster.
Drawbacks: arc blades work more imbalanced. Loose less clean.
Mechanical trigger: different types of automatic triggers used primarily for compound bows provide a clean and accurate release. Also, the angle rope most compound bows make it tough loose "finger". Not traditional "often / must" use. The main reason is that we need the "archer's paradox" caused by loose with your fingers so that the arrow out properly the peculiar window of a traditional bow.
trigger
Much less popular than the previous two, we have the "Mongolian Style". It involves pulling the rope with your thumb. It is not suitable for high-power arcs.
My personal recommendation is to practice the "set-arm" without forgetting the "swing-arm" when the situation requires quick shots.
And whatever combination you choose, it is essential a consistent anchor and especially to maintain the position until the fleche impact on target.
Top 3 Essential Tips for maintenance Compound Bow
To maintain as a new compound bow will have to deal with it, but as a mechanical device that is prone to wear like anything else. However, there are some simple maintenance reviews that you can do to stay in first class.
Check chains and cables
You will need to apply a light coat of wax string bow every fortnight at least to maintain its performance at its best and protect them from damage. When considering the wax to buy worth paying extra for a high-quality brand rather than cheaper alternatives, since it pays for itself in the long run and usually gets more ropes and cables of this way.
Most likely to be replaced every year or two years, but be sure to check regularly for signs of wear or weaknesses. As soon as you notice this, it's time to get it replaced. This requires an individual press arc and will have to take it to a professional to do this.
Eccentric lubrication
The axes will need to have some special lubricant that applies every 1000-2000 shots. The lubricant should be Teflon or silicon based if possible or fat quality. Lubricating oils, such as WD-40 will hurt the arc to keep away from them - they can also collect dust and dirt that performance will be reduced.
Calibration Centershot
The calibration is center shot tuning injection into the supply circuit of the chain, and the arc will remain accurate. This is relatively easy to align, and all you have to do is move the arrow rest left or right depending on where you are at this time. A release handle aligns the shot with the power circuit of the chain. Shooter's fingers but will have to place your shot so that the tip is a bit out control circuit chain.
These maintenance tips will keep your archery as well as it did the first time I got it. If in doubt you can always take a professional to do this for you, but try yourself and learn because it only takes a few minutes to make from time to time.
