The Crossbow
Alternative: The Lock-a-Draw on Your Bow Aging and disabled archers often "graduate" to a crossbow because they can no longer draw their bow, but there is better alternative. Convert your compound bow into a vertical crossbow with the Lock-a-Draw draw lock. It has significant advantages over a crossbow for those who possess and previously used a compound bow. It is the ideal solution for the disabled archer. Don't let shoulder problems, age, or other health related issues keep you from participating in the sport of archery. With the Lock-a-Draw you can use a powerful bow that you could never draw in the usual manner. You draw the bow with hands and feet like the usual crossbow. Advantages of the

I really enjoyed talking with you last night. It is great to be able to speak with the owner/designer of such a good piece of equipment to help some of us older models. I have been sharing your web site with my friends and plan to share at our hunting club. Jim from Woodland Park, CO 9/27/2011: I got a nice doe during the either sex archery season here in Colorado. I couldn't have done it without you. Thanks a million! Jim from Woodland Park, CO 7/6/2011: "I would like to tell you that your invention will allow me to still hunt again. I found crossbows to be so awkward in hunting situations that I didn't hunt very much the last two years. I sure wish I had known about Lock-a-Draw earlier. As you state, the system is very accurate." Dominick from Ballston Spa, NY 11/19/2010: You really have a good product. Your Lock-a-Draw shoots really tight groups and I am excited about bow hunting again. My brother, who has had some elbow problems, share my enthusiasm. I went out last Saturday and saw 3 does within shootable range. However, I want to shoot a really nice buck so I am holding out for the rut, which will begin in early. Roger from Broxton, GA 6/18/2010: Thanks for a great product. I am a cancer survivor with both shoulders messed up. With this Lock-a-Draw I am able to shoot my bow with ease. I looked at the other Draw-Loc that another company sold and didn't like the rod sticking out the front of the bow. You would have to sit down to draw the bow. Again Thank You Mr. Sandel for your Lock-a-Draw. Its nice when you call with a question and the owner answers the phone!!
The Lock-a-Draw II comes with a bow mounted quiver that holds the draw lock as well as the arrows for carrying. The Lock-a-Draw mounting plate has the same pins as the bow mounted quiver and replaces the quiver on the quiver mounting block which is attached at the front sight. Since it mounts on the sight, it does not modify your compound bow in any way. The bowstring is pulled to the string catch using a foot stirrup when standing or between hands and feet when sitting (as in a tree stand). An arrow is nocked, and the bow is ready to fire with a slight pull of the trigger. The string catch is spring biased to the latched (cocked) position and the safety is always on except when the button is pressed to allow firing. More detailed information and pictures of the Lock-a-Draw and quiver are found on the Lock-a-Draw Details page. Disabled archers who lack the ability to draw a high powered bow in the traditional manner may also have trouble holding a bow steady with the extended arm. A simple solution to this problem is to use a shooting stick. This is nothing more than a dowel or slender stick that is held in the bow hand along with the bow to support the bow and archer's arm while aiming and firing. This is explained further in the Using a Shooting Stick page. The shooting stick is not practical in a hunting situation because it requires too much movement. For hunting the Bow Rest is the ideal solution. It holds the bow in a ready position out in front of you while waiting for game, and you fire the bow while in the bow rest. It takes the weight of the bow and your arm while steadying the bow like a shooting rail does for a rifle. The Bow Rest is described more fully on the Disabled Bowhunting page. Virtually all states allow disabled archers to apply for a permit to use a crossbow or a draw lock in their archery hunting season. A draw lock equipped bow is considered a crossbow in the regulations. Information on the use of the Lock-a-Draw for bowhunting is found on the Disabled Bowhunting page. |
