Default Left shoulder

Whenever I shoot my bow, my right shoulder feels great, my my left shoulder/tricep tires very quickly. I'm shooting a right-hand bow at 55#. I can pull it back no problem but my left shoulder just gets tired so easy. Is this a form issue?

Sounds like you may be tryinng to lift you shoulder and hold it up. Let your shoulder lower and lock into place. Take a picture of you holding your bow back and there will be plenty of guys here to help you with your form.

Now that I look at them, I see that I'm leaning back. Better fix that.

Your right you are leaning back a little, which is lifting your left shoulder and puting alot of the tention on it because it is holding alot of the wieght. Lean forward a little and let the shoulder drop and relax. Its hard to tell but it looks like your elbow is a little to straight as well. Don't be afraid to let it come out a little.
