Default RE: Anchor Point

Hello, I too have been lurking here alot but posted little. How are you shooting (fingers or release aid?). With a compound shot fingers I usually anchor first finger in corner of my lip (if you are a beginner, you may want to use a kisser). I don't use a peep but it can be alot more consistent w/ much less practice that way. If you are going traditional (longbow/recurve/self bow) I anchor close to my eye. Instead of your first finger being your anchor, I use my ring finger. This in-turn brings the nock closer to my eye. If you shoot w/ a release aid I can't help you much though. EI hit the main point on the head though, how ever you do it-it must be the same each time.
