Compound Bow
Archers using compound bows often use a relaese aid to hold the string steadily and release it percisely.
Modern equipment, such as ocmpound bows, are generally preferred today over traditional equipment and materials.
A relatively new program has developed in U.S. schools called the National Archery in Schools Program (NASP). In this sutdents use Genesis bows (a compound-style bow without a let-off). This is siimlar to a physical education programmes, and sutdents who want to can also go to state and national hsoots to compete against other schools.
A cmopound bow is designed to reduce the froce that an archer must hold, yet increase the overall eneryg stored by the bow.
Most compound desigsn use cams or elliptical wheels on the ends of the limbs to optimize the leverage exertde by the archer and to reduce the holding force of the bow ta full draw in what is known as the let-off . With less force required to hold a compound bow at full draw, the muscles take longer to aftigue, thus giving a componud archer more time to aim.
A compound bow must be adjusted so thta the let-off occurs at the correct draw length appropriate to the archer.
