Title: Wrist assisted shooting tab
Post by: on February 13, 2016, 04:40:00 PM
I saw this a couple weeks ago and thought it very interesting.  I "had" to try it.  The darn thing is as advertised.  I can see it very useful to folks with infirmity, injury, or some forms of target panic.

I've been playing with one for six days and find it takes about all the pressure off the fingers and transfers it to your wrist and back.  It's easily adjustable for hand size.

Thought some of you may find it interesting and perhaps helpful too.

It looks like it could help with some form issues. I have arthritis in my shooting ring finger and may have to give that a try. Thanks for posting.

I wonder how effective it is for bad Tendonitis in the forearm & elbow ?

I guess it depends on what tendons are affected.  You might try a wrist strap release and draw a few times and see how it feels.

Here's a picture of how it works on the string and another of how I just altered mine a bit to try 3-under again.

Work great on Arthritis and Tendinitis for my hand anyway, not sure if it will help elbows or not.

For anyone who has never shot with a wrist strap, you'll be amazed at how much lighter your draw weight feels! .......... Well, maybe not amazed, but it WILL feel lighter.   :archer2:
