Switched to bare fingers.

<< < (2/6) > >>

Grunt:
I'm going bare fingers also. Bare fingers work especially well when shooting a bow that is not center shot and has an added arrow rest. The release is really important if you want to group.

J05H:
Interesting. Maybe I should try that. I shoot a 60lb bow but i think eventually the callouses would get thick enough.

sweeney3:
You'd probably be fine.  Mine is 52 and it's okay.  I haven't shot enough yet that I have actual callouses, but I think I have gotten used to it enough that it just doesn't hurt now.  I imagine that if I shot for a whole afternoon that might be different.  But my usual daily practice sessions are fine.  I would like to get to where I could shoot indefinatly, and I will eventually.

zeNBowyer:
After  reading this  thread  i  tried  bare  fingers  on  my  60#  --  uh-uh:)

sweeney3:
I don't think I'd want to shoot a 60 bare either.  Wind up being called "Stumpy".
