ABSTRACT:
The improved arhery bowstring release device assembly of the present invention includes an archery bowstring release device having a front end with a bowstring engager, a front portion having a component adapted to manually move the bowstring engager between a bowstring retaining position and a bowstring releasing position, an elongated shaft extending rearwardly from the front portion and a detent connected to the rear end of the shaft. The assembly also includes a wrist strap having on its outer surface a sleeve defining a longitudinal passageway therethrough through which the shaft slideably extends. The passageway is of smaller diameter than that of the detent so that the shaft cannot be removed from the sleeve. The release device can be moved into a wrist storage position by sliding the shaft rearwardly in the sleeve, and can be extended forwardly by the shaft to an operative position for use. In a preferred embodiment the bowstring engager consists of a pair of opposed jaws moveable between the closed and open positions by a lever geared thereto and extending outwardly from the front portion of the release device for operation by an archer's finger.
