SHOOTING THE BOW
Nocking an Arrow
Before each shot, make sure the arrow does not
have a cracked or loose nock. Immediately
replace any damaged nocks. Also be sure the
shaft of the arrow is not dented or cracked.
Immediately discard any cracked or broken arrow
shafts.
With the bow in the relaxed position, snap the
nock end of the arrow (closest to fletching) onto
the string with the arrow perpendicular to the
string as shown above. The odd colored vane
should be pointing out. Place the arrow in the
arrow rest. The two supports on the EZ Draw
Arrow Rest will keep your arrow on the rest as
you draw the bow.
Drawing the Bow
Place your first finger
around the string above
the nock point and
arrow. Place the middle
finger and third finger
around the string under
the arrow. Draw the
bowstring back to your
jaw, placing your first
finger at the corner of
your mouth. This is called an anchor point.
Keep your left arm slightly bent. Keep the bow
straight up and down. Point the arrow at your
target, aim and let go of the string.
***Remember, never draw back and release your
bow without an arrow in place.***
