Title: Clicker question II
Post by: Jock Whisky on February 10, 2025, 07:19:20 PM

I'm trying a clicker and have a quick question. Once at full draw how much further should I be drawing to activate the clicker. ie 1/16", 1/8", 1/4". I realize it's different for everyone but I'm looking for a general idea.

Everybody is different, but mine are set at 1/4" past my solid anchor.

Don't give up too soon on a properly set clicker, it takes a while to get used to it.

As small as you can make it.  On the one hand, until you get used to it, you may occasionally set off the clicker before you're ready.  But on the other, expanding that last little bit can seem monumental when at full draw.  As MC says, it takes a while to get used to it.

I set mine up so when I'm at full draw that's it, I then concentrate on sight picture and release.
