OK, I went back in the yard this afternoon to give it another go. I had better results today. I just started to really dig my knuckle in under my ear so I could feel it through the mask. I don't have a problem with feeling my string on my nose, just my knuckle. I will keep shooting with my mask on and try to get consistant with my anchor, I think if I keep pushing my knuckle hard into my ear so I am sure of where it is I will do OK. I'll let ya'll know. If after a couple of weeks I'm not seeing significant improvment I will rethink my options. Thank you for your input, particularly you Mobo. I'm glad to see you are still around.
