When I first started down the trad road I watched the movie about Howard Hil.( I think it was John Shultz?) I tried to do that every time and all I ever hit was the bottom of the target at our indoor range

. then some one showed me the set arm method where you just hold your arm up point it it the direction ya want you arrow to go and I was on target with in the first few shots. it has worked for me

good luck
