Kisser button, particularly for shorter archery bows

Abstract

An improved kisser button enables an archer to establish a more accurate shot in conjunction with a smaller anchor point reference. In contrast to exiting devices, wherein the angle formed by the plane of the button and the bowstring is substantially perpendicular, the same angle associated with the inventive unit is purposefully non-perpendicular to accommodate shorter bows, including compound bows. Depending upon the configuration, the angle between the axis of the bore through the button and the plane of the plane of the button is preferably in the range of 10 to 60 degrees, and most preferably at an angle of approximately 45 degrees. The preferred embodiment also includes a thin sleeve protruding from at least one surface of the body through which the bore extends, and a crimp which fits over the sleeve to hold the body in place on the bow string. A slit may be preferably provided through the device, facilitating the ease installation on the string of the bow once strung.
