The Astra Shot Trainer is a technique training device that teaches you how to release the bowstring while maintaining shot strength and direction. The sleeve slides over your shooting arm while the adjustment strap is looped and attached to the bowstring. Once attached, releasing the bowstring transfers the force of the bow to your drawing arm elbow, forcing you to maintain strength and direction without interruption.
Proper sizing and fit is necessary to achieve results and ensure product integrity. The general rule of thumb is to provide yourself with ~2.5cm of a gap between your release fingers and the bowstring (see video below for more details). Most archers set the Shot Trainer too long when they first start using it. It is better to be too short, than too long. You want to set it short as you can make it and still execute your shot without impairment.
Measure the circumference of your drawing arm at its widest point. Some people have bigger forearms than biceps – measure the widest point
