Default Uncocking a recurve

How much harder is it to uncock a recurve than a compound?

It's easy to uncock an Excal w/ ropecocker. A lot easier than you would think. There's a video on it somewhere, I'm sure Reb will post it, lol. He's the forums resident puter guru.

Don't know Dan, it tells you not to use the Rope Cocker to Decock your Crossbow!

Nah, that's old Reb, there's a video of Bill T uncocking one. Reminder though xbow people, you can't use a winder type to uncock, ever, no, not even once, lol.
