Abstract
An archery training system provides an archer the ability to safely condition psychologically and physically without the need of a bow and arrow while maintaining the sensation of using a bow and arrow. The archery training system is easily portable or stowed, and offers a combination of variables replicating the activity of compound bow shooting, such as a counter balanced replication of a grasped bow while drawing a bowstring, the utilization of accessory bow sights for target acquisition and aiming, the adjustability to accommodate the various hand grip styles unique to each archer, and immediate visual feedback to performance or shooting technique.

8. An archery training system comprising:
-
a handle structure comprising; top and bottom ends; a handle structure length from the top end to the bottom end; a long axis along the handle structure length; a handle medially located on the handle structure; and a housing unit positioned above the handle; a balancer coupled to and articulating within the housing unit, the balancer articulating substantially orthogonal to the long axis; a first resistance band with a first free end and a first non-looped end inserted through the balancer and coupled to a first tensioner coupled to the handle structure; and a second resistance band with a second free end and a second non-looped end coupled to the handle structure; whereby the archery training device is operable to allow a user to grasp the handle structure with one hand and with the other hand pull rearward a mechanical release aid that is attached to at least the first or second looped ends creating resistance band expansion and tension. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
