If your right ear hits the target

I'll throw out arm slap and rearward head lean. Also, chafing on the back of your ear, and hair in your string strands.

Arm slap, "S" stance, rolled shoulder, Leaning head to see the peep, Straight and locked bow arm (not always but often enough).

Left/right misses. Kisser button pulled back to the corner of the mouth (do you kiss your wife/girlfriend with the corner of your mouth?) Leaning back at the hips. And all the other things above.

Earwax on your string instead of string wax.

Here's the way I check my draw length, to see if it's to long, or too short. Good little rule of thumb so to speak.:

"________Draw length troubleshooting:__________
A) If your draw length is too long your sight should float and never really stop. On too long of a draw length your misses will not be as far from the center but they will tend to be one side to the other without any consistency.

B) If your draw length is too short your sight
may momentarily stop but when it moves it is herky/jerky. On a too short draw length your misses will tend to be further from the center.

C) If your draw length is correct (in theory) your sight will stop momentarily and the movement will be slower and reduced."

Hope this helps. Let us know how it works out for ya. Be safe.

Me too. How are you supposed to get the kisser to the front of your mouth? Then it would be too short wouldnt it? I was always told to put it in the corner of my mouth.
