Default RE: Critique my form........Thanks

Monie, I'll agree with you on one point. One that I saw and forgot to comment about. The wrist sling is too tight. As for developing muscles that hold the bow? About the only muscles that should be doing any real work are the back muscles themselves. And these to hold at full draw---not hold the bow up.

I think that Bigpapascout and I are on the same page. Although I agree with the idea of people making excuses, he does have a way of saying it better than I. However, I don't see much justification in asking for constructive criticism if it's not going to be heeded anyway. This is where many guys fall short of achieving decent goals, not only in archery, but in life. The desire to better one's self comes at a price. It's partly desire, but also the willingness to act on the advice given---and give the body and mind time to adjust to something new.

Rome wasn't built in a day, as the saying goes. Well, good shooting form is not learned in a day, or a month or......

Hell, Ive been shooting compounds for 32+ years and still learning new tricks. Some work for me and some don't, but I don't dismiss ideas out of ignorance or bull headedness.
