Hooter Shooter shooters!

[geoffretired]

If you have used a Hooter Shooter, what happens to the bow when it is drawn back by the winding mechanism? In particular, what movements are there, on the riser, at the start of the draw and are there any during the rest of it?
I am assuming the string is drawn from the d-loop if there is one. I am also assuming the bow is held by some sort of substitute hand and sling so the natural reactions/movements can be mimiced as closely as possible.
My guess is that, if at the start there is no tension in the winding mechanism,as the tension comes on, the riser will tilt backwards at the top as the drawing force pulls things into line.After that I think there will be no further movements or some very slight ones if the nock travel is not in a straight line on a particular bow for some reason.
On the power stroke, is it possible to see a backwards tilt of the bow or the long rod flicking up if it is under weighted?
Thanks in advance.

Sorry, but what is a Hooter Shooter? I know I've been out of it for a while but...

I assume that it's a device for disabled archers?

IIRC I did not notice any movement of teh stabilizer as it reached peak weight.
The mech to hold the bow is a simple V point so it doesn't impact the riser.

Fun Tee it's a maching that shoots arrows from bows using a support for the bow that mimics a hand and a winding mechanism that draws it to full draw and releases the string. It cuts out human error and allows archers to see what the bow can do when they don't add their mistakes to its performance.
Thanks Marcus. Nice action shot , too.
IIRC ??? I don'y know what that means, sorry.

If I Recall Correctly

Thanks, it makes sense now, so basically it shoots how we all want to

Fun Tee,perhaps it shoots like every one else wants to. I want to shoot better than that!
