Buttons

Buttons (plungers) for recurve

The button, also called plunger or pressure button, is a spring-loaded pin that the arrow rests against when you shoot. It absorbs the sideways bending of the arrow on release (archer's paradox) and is one of the most important tuning tools on a recurve bow. In this category you will find buttons for beginners, intermediate archers and competitive shooters.

What to look for when choosing a button:

• Spring tension: the button is adjusted with springs of different stiffness (soft, medium, hard) and an adjustable pre-tension. This lets you match it to your arrow spine and draw weight.
• Centre shot: the length of the button sets how far the arrow sits to the side of the string. Correct centre shot is the basis of good arrow flight.
• Click adjustment: many competition buttons have a click system, so you can change and reset the spring tension precisely.
• Thread: almost all recurve risers have a 5/16" plunger hole; check this on older or youth risers.
• Build quality: a smooth, friction-free plunger without play gives more consistent groups.
