Installing Standard Bow Accessories

Whether a seasoned pro or just starting out on the journey of archery, archery supplies are designed to help ensure a successful outing. You can choose from traditional recurve bows, compound bows and crossbows to find what tools best suit your purposes, and add a sense of stealth and finesse to your hunting skills. However, before heading out into the actual shooting, it's important to get the necessary amount of practice in for learning or for maintaining your skills. Archery games like archery targets and other archery accessories provide simple target practice and help you focus on aiming with precision and accuracy.

Here is an article along with an instructional video to help you on installing standard bow accessories.

How to Set-up Extreme Bow

As what you can see in the video, a right-handed compound bow is one which is held by the left hand and the right hand is used to hold the string. What you first need to do is to set the bow down on its left hand side then lay out the pieces such as the stand keys which is a metal device used in assembling the parts and the arrow rest plus arrow keys.

Pick up the cable slider and put it on the bow where you can see a little piece of plastic which will slide down in the right position if fixed. Check for the hole in the compound bow and select one of the smaller keys to loosen up the two locks found inside the bow. Loosen up a few screws but do not undo them completely.

Next, you need to position the plastic slider; it could be anywhere up and down the string. Position the plastic slider in line with the hole and slide the other end to the other hole. Twist it up to pull the strings away and tighten up the locks. Now you have installed the cable slider.

In installing the arrow rest, pick up the arrow rest and tighten the knot on the screw. It is supposed to be screwed on the other side so flip the bow over and attach it on the inside where the groove is. Then, screw in the arrow rest. When you’re already satisfied with the position, or would want the lift to be aiming forward, get the plastic knot and tighten it on the other side.

Next step is to install the aiming device. You put the bow back on its left hand side so you can access the right side of the bow and install the metal aiming device. Attach the two little knots and tighten using the keys. Once done, you have installed the bracket or brace for the aim device.

The last step would be to install the pins. First thing is to take most of its parts off. Unscrew the pieces which should have 4 pieces in all once disassembled. Next is to grab the round piece and put it underneath the brace. Hold it in position and get the piece with the hand grip to fill up and screw it on the top side. Make it tight but not so much that it won’t be capable of sliding anymore. Lastly, install the long piece by screwing it on the top. Once you’re happy that the arrow rest and the pin is lined up, put the bow down and tighten the screws from the outside.
