Default i'm bring sexy back (again, another form thread)

First, let me apologize for the Justin Timberlake lyrical reference, I just couldn't resist.


Secondly, I will shoot the first person to say something negative about Jimmie Johnson or my Jimmie Johnson hat. This is no joke [:@]lol

Now, onto business.

I lean back, but this is how i'm comfortable (muscle memory from baseball I suppose).

My draw length may look long, but I was measured to be a 31" and it's only 30", and it feels real comfortable. I don't plan on changing anything, but if I ever chose to in the future I'd like to know what I should focus on.

Just thought I'd see if anyone saw any major form problems.

Thank you.

It looks good to me. The main thing is that you are comfortable at full draw. What one person does might not work so well for the next.

well thank you.

You all can say whatever (except about the hat!!) ha ha [8D]

I am very contrary, I'm not going to change anything (like I said before) just wondering what to focus on should my consistency start to falter.

Thanks.

Why postit if you already know what is wrong and don't plan to change?

You are leaning back and I will ask you to go try and bend at the waist outof tree stand OR shoot uphill with that much leaning back.

Draw LOOKS long but standing up straight and lowering your anchor a bit will change the look of that greatly.

I think you got measured wrong.

I am 6'2+ and I have long arms, I didn't get measured wrong. I got measured three times actually (when I bought my first bow, when I measured myself, and whenI bought my second bow) both times from different places.

30 with a release is just about right.

I am leaning back, a lot more of that has to do with where I was standing (there was a considerable limb under my front foot).

thanks for the responses.

If it looks too long...that's because it is. But, hey, do what you like and have fun!

You're leaning back, you're draw may be too long, and the hat needs to go[:-]
