Title: bow noise solved with FORM
Post by: one more bow on April 28, 2013, 03:16:00 PM
Hello, I posted a question over on pow wow about new glove noise.
Well heres what ive found so far from reading here. i decided besides my noise bow i wasnt sure how graat my form was. so i watched some videos sent to Moebow then videoed myself and i saw some things. I kept hearing about this rotational draw, so i went to youtube and looked it up. Seemed a little wiered at first but after an honest effort i felt my back muscles engage for the first time!!! i lhave been drawing with all arms. not knowing it.
One more thing i noticed, the noise was all but gone!!!  Never would have thought form would make that much difference in shot noise. Aside from using back mscles i noticed my string elbow was a little high. Relaxing drawing hand seems to have a real effect also. I really have to think each of these things through as i shoot but i know in time it will become second nature.

thanks to those who've alread welcomed me.
Steve   :thumbsup:  

P.S. i really hate typing, so forgive all the typos and miss spelled words. i just hate having to keep going back and correcting things, not that lazy, just dont like typing.

Good stuff Steve.  Sounds like you are on the right track.  I just did something different with my sting hand the other day and got a noticeable difference in bow sounds shooting 3 under.  Anything you do to your string, arrow the way the limbs time on the shot, and even the way you hold the bow all make a difference to the way the bow vibrates and sounds.  And that is why some rave about how quite a particular bow is for them and others don’t have the same experience at all.

Yes....what ever it takes to get to proper alignment...and a rotational draw will help...either over the top like MoBows...or horizontal like HHs.
