A sling is used to be able to shoot with a relaxed bow hand thus increasing the accuracy of the shot.

When shooting without a sling, it goes without saying that one will hold on to the bow during and after the shot. In this way, the bow is held slightly different each time. As we are not machines, it is difficult, not to say impossible, to move every muscle in exactly the same way every shot. A very simple solution to this problem is: just do not hold the bow. In this way the bow moves freely after every shot while hand and wrist can relax. This technique can be reproduced more consistently. The sling only stops the bow from falling and prevents damage.
