Default Kisser or not

Do you prefer a kisser button or not?

I started without one, got one when I got my new bow, and really like it. It takes a little practice to find it quickly through the facemask, though.

Negative.

A solid anchor and a peep keep me from needing one.

No need for extra stuff on the string if you can help it.

As long as I can anchor my release hand there is no need for a kisser.On the other hand mygirlfriend has probably one of the best looking kissers around, but I don't wanna brag too much.

Exactly. No kisser for me. I rely on multiple "feel" anchor points and a peep.

Now that I shoot FOBs I use the FOB as somewhat of a kisser. It touches below my lip and above my chin every time. Then I put the string on the tip of my nose. First and Second knuckle of my right hand on the pointy bone of my jaw, just below the ear.

That's three reference points based on feel.

I also have a fourth visual reference point - the peep.

So there's no need for a kisser IMO.
