Elong Archery Bow Trainer Draw Training Aid Device Strength Stretch Band Exerciser for Recurve Bow Compound Shooting Kids Adults Beginner Experts

As a novice archer my muscles are not as strong as needed. This trainer is helping strengthen the specific muscles I need to enjoy this sport.

First: this product works exactly as advertised. Secondly: this product could easily be improved; make the top level of tension greater, put a cheap laser in the handle that can be held on target, and add a draw loop. I added my own draw loop using the same string that is used for the bow draw loops (asked the tech at my local shop and he just gave me a foot long piece) I tied it on loose so that it will slide up and down as you adjust the tension. This is absolutely a must as practice/excersize should be as close as possible to the real thing.

Works very well and has helped ro improve my stamina while shooting.

Trainer does a good job of strengthening while helping with form.

The adjustable pull strength is pretty nice to be able to adjust (use a pull scale for accurate weight) and the level function is great to help with feeling the angle compared to how level you may be holding the bow.However:I spent 2 hours shooting an ILF recurve @ 20lbs pull the other day with no shoulder discomfort. I just spent less than 10 minutes on this thing and the pull from the bottom (holding the bow) band is wayyyyy too strong. Now my left trapezium is uncomfortable (I'm right handed). This may have been made for reallly short people but at 5'11" I'm ending up really pulling on the lower band to get it level to my height. Using a tension scale, it shows that to pull it out and up (to mimic position of holding the bow eye level, I am expending almost 6 pounds (3x the eight of my bow) of tension to hold it in place (but on an angle! They should have thought about height differences to make the tension on the bottom adjustable. So this can only be used for 10 minutes at a time which is very little usage. Even adjusting the upper cloth band section (under the handle), still not enough.Also some bead like object fell out when I was giving myself more play on the cord under the handle so I had to slightly jerry rig it to stop from pulling the cable off the handle.Neat thing to play around with but not recommended for practice. I will have to figure out something to allow me to extend the bottom cable and get a much more realistic weight holding a bow.

This is a great product for the novice Archer it will help improve keeping your bow level and help perform with accuracy on 56 years old and I still use it so it's never too late give it a try it's well worth the money I highly recommend this product.

I really like this product but the instructions and description talk about a laser that is not included in the product I received.

Not good. Great concept but not good. Cant tighten up for more resistance. Soon as you pull back or raise up it pulls the band back to loose. Had to tie knots in it to keep from loosening back up. There are better options
