ORIGINAL: TFOX

I believe he meant to say the tubing was too short.I believe it was a typo.


That release still looks long,even the short one,here is mine.Of course,mine is really short.[8D]


My hand is smaller than yours but the releases really aren't that far apart.
Im not gonna buy a new release. how would I be able to adjust it?

Ill make it a bit longer just to see whats up.

I have taken releases apart like yours before.Some of them have an allthread rod and they are easy to make shorter,just cut the rod shorter and put a new bend in it.You will probably need someone to help you with this if it is possible with your release.However,I do recomend getting a new,shorter release.

Yes that release can be shortened up a little.

Unscrew the nut on the back of the rod and pull it out of the leather, cut off the bend in the threaded rod with a hacksaw or dremel, cut the rubber sleeve that is covering the threaded rod the same ammount that you cut the rod, rebend the threaded rod, insert it back into the hole, retighten the nut back onto the threaded rod.

As far as form goes... look at Tfox's son (I assume that's your son)in his avatar. That is what you should look like at full draw. Like a "T".
