Last paragraph of article:
Perhaps the most useful piece of adaptive equipment is referred to as a, 'draw loc.' A draw lock holds the person's bow at full draw until a trigger is activated. While a draw lock-equipped bow is essentially the functional equivalent of a crossbow, the experience of using such a bow is similar to that of using a compound bow instead of a crossbow. An advantage of of using a draw loc is that persons who are strength impaired can draw the bow between their hands and feet using their stronger back and leg muscles. One down point to the use of a draw lock is that it does add weight to the person's bow.

Never would have happened without Draw Loc!!!
Thanks Draw Loc. I
was no longer able to draw my bow on its lowest setting of
55 pounds Two days before my 66th birthday I shot my best
buck ever.Never have killed a buck with a bow. This was my
second buck with my draw loc. Last year when I was unable to
normally draw my bow I used my bow with the Draw Loc
attachment to shoot a 9 point basket rack. My friend said I
cleaned out the gene pool.I did remove the foot
stirrups as I am able to cock the bow by using both hands by
pulling into my belt buckle.
Never would have happened without Draw Loc!!!
