← Sports & EntertainmentWhy does an archer typically adjust bow hand pressure during tuning?
A)To minimize arrow frictional losses
B)To maximize bow limb efficiency
C)To correct for arrow spine paradox✓
D)To regulate bowstring oscillation frequency
💡 Explanation
Archers adjust bow hand pressure to compensate for the arrow spine paradox, because this tuning process ensures the arrow bends correctly around the bow upon release, therefore minimizing erratic flight; rather than altering friction, limb efficiency or bowstring frequency directly.
