How can I shoot a bow without the string slapping my wrist?

Wrist slap is a common problem faced by archers, especially beginners. It can be painful and can hinder your shooting accuracy. Here are a few tips to help you avoid wrist slap:

  1. Make sure your bow is the correct size for you. A bow that is too long or too short can cause wrist slap.
  2. Grip the bow correctly. Your hand should be relaxed and your thumb should be placed behind the arrow.
  3. Keep your elbow straight. This will help to keep your wrist in a neutral position.
  4. Release the string smoothly. Don't jerk the string or let it snap back.
  5. Practice regularly. The more you practice, the better your form will become and the less likely you are to experience wrist slap.
