I understand why you are anchoring back past your ear. I feel your draw length is quite a bit too long. You should be able to put the string to the end of your nose and for you to do that you'd have to lean your head back and be out of alignment.

hmmmm thats strange. i bought that bow two weeks ago from a pro shop near my house, and i know the people there know their stuff. i had them measure my draw length before they set up the bow, and it came out to 27 1/2. thats the reason i thought maybe it was something i was doing wrong. the problem may be that the serving on my cable near the bottom cam is starting to spread. maybe the string has stretched?

Actually, studying it again, you could bring your shoulder up and it would help with the DL issue. It might not be as long as it seems because of that. Your shoulder is low.

The anchor could very well be too long of a release. Can it be shortened up.

yeah the release is adjustable so i could shorten it. are you talking about bringing up my left shoulder, the one holding the bow? by the way do you have any idea why the bow is eating up the cable on the bottom cam? i'll have to post a pic of it
