Salutations RB,

Have to be a really careful as you have to make sure you are canted the same at your anchor....It can cause havoc with arrow flight if you are canted off a bit at anchor, and canted the opposite way at the bow...... especially if you use a loop where you are feeling less of the bowstring...

In a hunting situation where you often don' t have the time or chance for perfect form, any error could be a real mess...cant a bit too much and you' ll sail one in the guts or into the front shoulder despnding on which way the deer is facing..and quartering shots will require even more precision.

I suggest you eperiment with some other areas to get a better hold...grip position..bow arm position, shoulder position, custom grip...differernt release aids..., etc etc.

And one of the angled grip bows from Pearson or GE might be just up your alley...

And you might look into shooting a longbow...seriously..you might take to it quite well if " canted shooting" is more natural for you..
