clicker/button compression

[willis]

afternoon all

noticed this morning that my clicker causes my button to compress slightly, doesnt seem to be having any adverse affects but just wondered if this has the potential to cause me issues at a later stage.

any help greatly appreciated

I personally would not want this to be happening, for the simple reason that as your arrow comes from underneath the clicker, the spring-back action of the button spring would push the arrow away from the button, which would mean that the arrow won't be resting against the button consistently every time you release.

What type of clicker are you using?

that was my first thought, it doesnt compress much maybe a couple mm, im using a beiter clicker.

They come in different thicknesses, maybe a thinner one wouldnt have the same effect?

a couple of mm is a lot when it comes to bow tuning!

My guess is that your button is way too weak if the clicker can push it in.

If this is happening you need to re tune your bow and check that your arrows are not too stiff. Do they fly right (R/H archer) on release?

Groundhog's post is on the correct path.

No correct button setup should be so weak as to allow any correctly tuned combination of centershot, shaft diameter, and Beiter clicker to visibly compress the plunger.
