3/4 means you rotate (load&lock) the throwing arm by only rotating it 1/4 (90deg) around to set the spring, which when tripped, said spring then rotates the arm the other approx 270 degrees. I had one just like it but different brand and didn't pay that much for it. but, if you like that brand, get this one for about the same $$: https://www.academy.com/p/d...-clay-pigeon-thrower Those manual c o c k machines will wear you out if you do much trap shooting.
