Push/Pull is just one form style not the only one. My friend will always draw from a fixed position bow arm and he's deadly accurate from zero to hell and back yardage. I can't do it though, I push/pull too.
When I say push/pull I don't refer to a shooting style, I refer to an application of form... Slightly pushing the bow arm towards the target and never stoping the pull with my back muscles.... For me, I have to do that to be accurate whether I snap shoot or hold for 5 seconds.. Its really the only way I've found to maintain back tension.
