How do you use a thumb trigger?

Published in Archery Techniques 1 min read

Using a thumb trigger involves applying pressure to the thumb barrel until the release fires, but it's important to do so correctly for accuracy. Here's a breakdown:

  • Avoid using the outside finger, as this can cause pressure to transfer across the release, hindering accuracy.
  • Rotate the release so that the thumb barrel is positioned against your thumb.
  • Slowly increase pressure on the thumb barrel until the release fires.

In summary, the key is smooth, controlled pressure directly with your thumb to activate the trigger mechanism.
