alright this may be a crazy question but if it is cocked all day long then you dont have the opporunity to harvest an animal how do you un cock it without it dry firing????????????????????????
I am old school. I just use my hands to uncock the bow. It is just like hand cocking the bow, but in reverse, usung the thumb from one hand to release the trigger while pulling back on the string to remove the pressure, then let it down by hand. Easy after awhile.
Tom, you shoot a 150# Relayer, correct? Try that w/ my Emax and you'll change your user name to "Stretch" lol. W/ rope cocker, even it's a piece of cake!
Thats what I was thinking. I used to uncock my 175# Horton sometimes, but did not really like to do it that way, would not even want to attempt the Vortex. Had the Horton "slip" out of my fingers once! The tips of my fingers hurt until the next day!!
