Abstract: Archery artisans using 21st century composite horizontal and parallel split limb bows have had little success in adapting old technology to use. Specifically hanging one of the aforementioned 21st century style bows and how to control the involuntary lateral movement across rough, large textured hardwood tree bark while using a hanger that partially encompasses a hardwood tree branch. Solving this problem lead to many other unique and novel ideas, such as a wider contact patch instead of a contact point, using non-concentric tangently connected arc segment that have a 3-dimensional concaved scalloped design so an archery artisan could feel what position said bow was hanging without looking away from the hunted prey. Another unique solution involved a protruding registry tip needed so an archery artisan could feel a different position when the hanging apparatus is almost released and able to clear a stationary or swaying hardwood tree branch.
