I get elbow pain in my bow but in neither of spots you mentioned. I get it right inside of the joint

Great video-I have actually experienced severe pain in my bow arm shoulder, so much that I had to quit shooting for almost a year. My shoulder finally healed, but I still limit my shooting to prevent recurrence. Have you addressed bow arm shoulder injury in another video?

Oh it is exactly what I need! Thank you for the explaining. I am a beginner of tradbow and I get a painful elbow of its upper side. I thought it was because I slightly bent my bow arm but now I realize that the reason should be my over-stressed grip. Thanks a lot.

Great tips. I suffer with arthritis in some joints and assumed my elbow pain was down to that. After you pointed out the common pain areas, I realised its tendon pain. Off to dig out the kettle bells. Thanks a million 👍

Thank you! I’ve been trying to figure out how to solve my elbow pain issues.

Thank you for this explanation. That pulling aid looks very interesting. What is it called?

Definitely going to try these. I also wonder if it can be aggravated by the "snapping" of the elbow on the shot as the arm pressure is released and the "push" straightens the arm to max extension for a split second.

Thanks for the tips! I'm 76 and a long bow fan. When you're 76 things begin to hurt. 🙂
