ABSTRACT:
A bowstring release mechanism is disclosed which is operable in two alternative modes to draw and release an archery bowstring. In both modes the bowstring is held by means of a latch member which is moved to a cocked position, the latch member being held in the cocked position by a sear. The bowstring is then drawn, and the latch member is released from its cocked position to release the bowstring. In one such mode, manual pressure is applied to the sear to release the latch member from its cocked position. In the other mode, manual pressure is applied to the sear during the cocking operation and then released to release the latch member from its cocked position. Structure is disclosed which enable the mechanism to be operable in either of such modes at the election of the archer.
