Let go of the death grip on the release and let it float more.


Bowdoc,the rear elbow is more of a personal preference item imo.Most because of body styles and anchor points.


If you check most pros today,they are shooting a higher elbow(most are in line with their eye)than in years past,the equipment has alot to do with that as well.Coaches are even starting to teach the high rear elbow in many cases,maybe for a cleaner release.

I showed MANY photos of this a few weeks back.


IfI bring my elbow down,I lose anchors.I also DO NOT force my rear elbow in either direction up or down,that is where it falls.I also believe this causes many problems for shooters when they start forcing things into positions that their bodies aren't built to handle.


I even helped a guy one time that was throwing his hips forward(not leaning back) and told him several time he was doing it and tried to fix it UNTILL I notice him standingwithout a bow in his hands.His hips were pushed forward then as well,I quit trying at that point to get his hips back,his body was just built that way.

No need to apologise,I have tried many different styles and draw lengths and it is always a work in progress.
