- Aim the shooting arm at the target.
- Place the bow on the Hooter Shooter grip and
fasten sling to loosely hold bow with ¼" to ½"
of slack. At this time, the heel feature should
be totally retracted.
- Put an arrow on the string that is marked
for draw length.
- set winch to free wheeling mode and loosen
the wing nut on slider block just enough to
allow the slider block to be pushed to bow.
- Attach the release mechanism to the
bowstring duplicating the shooter as close as
possible. Remember the location and manner of
attachment should be precise and repeatable.
- Set the winch to ratchet mode, crank, and
draw the bowstring back until the marked draw
length is achieved. Take care not to over draw
the bow. If you go to far you can damage the bow
and cause personal injury. Safety glasses should
be worn.
- With a pencil, mark the slide bar at the
edge of the slide block nearest the winch so
that the slide block can be cranked back to the
same position repeatedly. Take mental note of
the crank position. It should come to rest at
the same spot every time also.
NEVER WALK OR POSITION
BODY PARTS IN FRONT OF THE HOOTER SHOOTER AT
FULL DRAW.
- Loosen the grip clamp approximately ½ turn.
Use the rod extended from the grip to orient the
bow to perpendicular and tighten grip clamp.
Don’t touch the bow in the grip. If you touch
the bow in the grip each shot, it may give you
frustrating results. Set the arms on the
vertical alignment gauge so the wire springs are
about 1/16" from the top and bottom limb
pockets. This makes for quick and easy repeat
reference for the same bow position and should
be monitored for each shot when desiring ultra
precise results.
- Align the sight and the peep with the target
using the elevation and windage adjustment on
the Hooter Shooter. If there is a need for
coarse adjustments let the arrow down and make
needed corrections. Relocating Hooter Shooter
makes coarse horizontal adjustments. Coarse
vertical adjustment can be made by removing wing
nut next to winch and moving bolt to a higher or
lower hole.
- Now that the vertical alignment gauge
references the vertical orientation, the draw
length is marked on the slide bar of the Hooter
Shooter, and the arrow is aimed at the target,
we are ready to shoot an arrow. It is essential
to be as exact as possible on each shot. Minor
variations do matter. Monitor the vertical
alignment gauge and draw the arrow in the same
manner every time. If you over draw an arrow and
let it down to draw length, it may hit
differently than one not overdrawn.
BE CONSISTENT
In the beginning, shoot the same arrow. Not all
arrows are the same and at this stage, we need
to eliminate as many variables as possible. When
you shoot enough times that you are confident in
your ability to repeat then you are ready to
start checking your other arrows and making tune
up adjustments.
