I'm looking for something that fits nicely behind a field tip that will contact the bow riser to stop the draw. The kicker is, something that's durable, won't affect arrow flight and do excessive damage to a 3-D target. Anyone make their own, or know someone who markets something?
Use a clicker instead.
osiris,
I like pulling to a solid wall rather than a click. Clickers never really helped my shooting as much as this method. I position my broadhead blades so they act as a stop, would like to get the same effect with a field tip.
Back in the 50's or 60's there was a devise that created the solid wall you're describing. It was basically a cord that attached to the riser and the middle of the bowstring to limit draw length. I'd have to dig through my old magazines to find a picture.
Personally, I'd be a little apprehensive about using the front of the arrow to create a solid wall. It sounds like a good way to pull the nock off the string, and then shoot.
I use a very thin "O" ring to check draw length. When asked what draw length you have, most guys think that their's is longer then it actually is. By placing the ring on the end of the arrow you can feel when it touches your finger. It will also tell you if you are creeping forward at all. The thing is that when checking their draw length they will actually be shooting the arrow and not just drawing it to anchor and letting down. BIG difference. I only use this for measuring draw length but it may work for what your asking. You will loose the rings in the target but they are cheap. Again, I don't use them all the time. I use them myself to recheck my draw length and check to confirm that I'm not creeping at all.
