When pulling arrows from the target, where should one hand be?

When pulling arrows from the target, the safest and most effective method involves placing one hand around the arrow on the target. This technique allows you to maintain control over the arrow while minimizing the risk of injury. By gripping the arrow, you can better manage its removal, especially if the arrow is deeply embedded or if you encounter any resistance.

This method also helps to stabilize the position of the arrow, reducing the likelihood of accidentally bending or damaging it during the extraction process. Furthermore, it allows your other hand to stabilize yourself against the target or the target face, ensuring that you have a secure and balanced stance. Thus, grasping the arrow provides a reliable way to handle arrows safely while ensuring the integrity of both the equipment and yourself.
