Bowstring release

1. A bowstring release, comprising:

a handle;

a jaw coupled to the handle, wherein the jaw is configured for

drawing the bowstring; and

releasing the bowstring; and

a sear coupled to the handle, the sear comprising a plurality of lobes, wherein each lobe defines a discrete setting indicative of an amount the release must be rotated for releasing the bowstring.

2. The release of claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the jaw is slidingly coupled to at least a portion of a surface of one of the plurality of lobes.

3. The release of claim 2 , wherein rotating the release with the bowstring drawn causes the jaw to slide along the surface of the lobe.

4. The release of claim 3 , wherein the jaw and the sear de-couple when the jaw slides off the surface of the lobe.

5. The release of claim 4 , wherein the bowstring is released when the jaw and the sear decouple.

6. The release of claim 5 , configured for emitting a signal before the bowstring is released.

7. The release of claim 6 , wherein the signal is audible or tactile or electrical or a combination of two or more thereof.

8. The release of claim 6 , wherein the signal corresponds to the setting of the lobe.

9. The release of claim 8 , wherein setting indicates the amount the release must be rotated after emitting the signal and before releasing the bowstring.

10. The release of claim 9 , wherein the amount the release must be rotated increases between successive lobes.

11. The release of claim 9 , wherein the amount the release must be rotated decreases between successive lobes.

12. The release of claim 5 , configured for emitting one or more signals before the bowstring is released.

13. The release of claim 12 , wherein the number of signals is defined by each lobe.

14. The release of claim 13 , wherein the amount the release must be rotated after emitting the last signal and before releasing the bowstring is the same for each of the plurality of lobes.

15. The release of claim 13 , wherein the amount the release must be rotated after emitting the last signal and before releasing the bowstring increases between successive lobes.

16. The release of claim 13 , wherein the amount the release must be rotated after emitting the last signal and before releasing the bowstring decreases between successive lobes.

17. The release of claim 3 , wherein the jaw is inhibited from releasing the bowstring while the jaw and the lobe are coupled.

18. The release of claim 1 , configured for minimizing bowstring release anticipation.

19. The release of claim 1 , configured as a back-tension release.

20. The release of claim 1 , comprising a jaw housing for coupling the handle and the jaw to each other.

21. The release of claim 1 , comprising a thumb post.

22. The release of claim 21 , comprising a plurality of locations whereat the thumb post can be re-located.

23. The release of claim 1 , configured for being held with a plurality of fingers.

24. The release of claim 23 , comprising an attachment for a user's little finger.

25. The release of claim 24 , wherein a sweep angle of the attachment is adjustable.

26. The release of claim 1 , wherein a pitch angle of the jaw relative to a longitudinal axis of an arrow attached to the bowstring is adjustable.

27. A bowstring release, comprising:

a handle;

a jaw coupled to the handle, wherein the jaw is configured for

drawing the bowstring; and

releasing the bowstring; and

a sear coupled to the handle, the sear comprising a plurality of lobes, wherein each lobe is configured to define an amount the release must be rotated for releasing the bowstring.

28. The release of claim 27 , wherein each lobe comprises a discrete setting defining the amount of rotation.
