clicker
This is a device that produces a click and allows the archer to pull the arrow back to the same position on different shots. This tells the archer when the string has been pulled back far enough to fire, because pulling or drawing too far or too short will produce a shot that will not be accurate. It is used only on recurve bows and it is used in Olympic competition.
