Default Changed my entire form again

I have been having issues lately with my anchor and shooting 3 under with a new dreamcatcher recurve. My thumb gets in my way, when shooting 3 under and using an anchor of my middle finger and my k-9 tooth.

I like to look down my shaft before drawing and slowly draw back holding steady. But when I get to my face, I become unsteady and have to settle into the shot, which can take 3-4sec. Then have to concentrate on my smooth release.

So I tried something new. It seems to be working out. I tried 3 under and using my cheekbone as anchor, but I was hitting way lower. I didn't want to relearn my shot. So I made another drastic change, and shot split finger. That way, I may be anchoring higher, but with split finger, my arrow is almost same POI as my 3 under approach with anchoring on my k-9.

I plan to still shoot my longbow 3 under but this recurve is not shooting well 3 under.

I hope this drastic change doens't mess me up.

Anybody else shoot different bows differently like this?
