Does a “dry release” actually hurt your bow? If so, why?
In: Physics
The same reason you still don’t want to point an empty gun at someone. It’s just good practice because you never know when you’ll draw the string and forget there’s an arrow loaded. Even in Hollywood there were issues back in the day when cast of Westerns would dry fire to practice and a live arrow accidentally made it’s way into the bow, other times there were miss firings when a live arrow was mixed in with the blank ones.
