How do I install a kisser button on a bow string?
A kisser button is a small, rubbery attachment that is placed on the bowstring to help the archer maintain a consistent anchor point. This can help to improve accuracy and consistency. Installing a kisser button is a relatively simple process, but it is important to follow the instructions carefully to avoid damaging the bowstring or arrow.
Materials needed:
- Kisser button
- Bowstring
- Bowstring serving tool
- Scissors
Instructions:
- Determine the desired location for the kisser button. This is typically about 1-2 inches above the nocking point.
- Mark the location on the bowstring with a pen or marker.
- Thread the serving tool onto the bowstring.
- Wind the serving thread around the bowstring at the marked location, making sure to keep the wraps tight and even.
- Tie off the serving thread with a few half hitches.
- Cut off any excess serving thread.
- Slide the kisser button onto the bowstring and adjust it to the desired height.
Tips:
- Use a serving thread that is the same diameter as the bowstring.
- Wind the serving thread tightly, but not so tightly that it cuts into the bowstring.
- Test the kisser button by drawing the bow back and releasing it. Make sure that the kisser button is making contact with your lips or nose.
