ABSTRACT:
A bowstring release apparatus having a housing and a release arm projecting from the housing. A flexible cord is secured with respect to the release arm and thereby forms a gap between the release arm and the flexible cord, when the bowstring release apparatus is in a loaded position. Upon release of the flexible cord with respect to the release arm, the bowstring release apparatus moves from a loaded position toward an unloaded position. A longitudinal axis of the release arm is positioned generally parallel to a direction of travel along which a bowstring moves, when the bowstring release apparatus moves from the loaded position to the unloaded position. Contact between the flexible cord and the bowstring preferably does not exceed an approximately 90.degree. arc section of an outer circumferential surface of the bowstring.
