Where do all you release shooters anchor so that your consistent from shot to shot. Do you use a kisser button? Thanks.

I use the fletching in the corner of my mouth, and a peep, works good for me.

I use a Scott caliper release. My right hand (drawing hand)index finger main knuckle presses against my right ear lobe while the V formed by my thumb and index finger cradles my jawbone. If my elbow is too low my knuckle doesn't touch my ear and if I'm too high my V doesn't get my jawbone.

Anchor points can be varied due to differing styles of equipment. They can also vary due to draw length discrepancies and whether or not you wear glasses. You should really consult an instructor to get assistance in determining which is best for you.

I was considering using the same anchor point, with the cock vane pointed to the left like a finger shooter would have it and take this to the corner of the mouth. Any other anchor points? A friend uses the large knuckle of his first finger anchored at the hollow spot at the bottom of the ear lobe. I want several different opinions to find something that will keep me from using a kisser button. Thanks.
