Release Aid

A release aid is a device used by archers to safely and consistently release the bowstring during shooting. It helps to minimize torque and unintended movements, ensuring a smoother, more accurate shot. Typically made of metal or plastic, release aids attach to the bowstring and are activated by the archer’s hand or finger, allowing a controlled release. They are especially popular in target archery and hunting, providing greater precision and reducing string torque that can affect shot accuracy. Overall, a release aid enhances control and consistency, contributing to better shooting performance.
