How do you cock a crossbow?

Cocking a crossbow involves putting your foot on the stirrup and pulling the string until it goes into the cocked position.

What many people do not realize, is that if the string is not cocked evenly, then the crossbow will not shoot as accurately as it should.

Since most people have a dominant, stronger arm, it is easy to cock the crossbow a little bit off center.

Because of this, it is best to use a crossbow cocking device, such as a string cocker. String cockers also reduce the amount of pull you have on the bow, making it easier to cock.

There are also crank cockers which even further reduce the amount of pull and these are great options for people that may not be strong enough to cock their own crossbow.

This is how one should release the bowstring?

depending on what kind of bow you have, you release different ways. if you have a re curve or long bow, you hold the string with 3 fingers, your index above the knock, and middle and ring below. you pull the string back towards your ear, aim and slowly straighten your fingers, allowing the string to slip off. its important not to jerk the string, because it throws off your shot. if you have a compound bow, chances are you are using a release, which is attached to your wrist and u simply pull a trigger to release the string.

What should you know about buying your first Archery set and lessons?

The very first thing you should do is get yourself some lessons, and make sure they aren't militantly biased towards modern bows, the user should be allowed to find the bow that they are most comfortable with towards the end of their weeks/months of training.

After you have been trained and have a better idea of the kind of route you wish to take, THEN you should consider acquiring equipment for yourself, you will need to decide whether you find side quivers or back quivers better, whether you like this bow more than that bow (too many types to elaborate on in this question), whether you like finger tabs, gloves, modern trigger release, etcetera. This is why you have to train first, otherwise you might end up with the wrong equipment.

As a final note, remember to start cheaper at first, you'll eventually grow out of your bow (as you get those specific muscles around your shoulderblades built up) and you will still be exploring with bow types, and you don't want to end up with a top-of-the-range bow and it turns out you don't like that type anyway.

Hopefully this answers your question.
