RE: Arm straight or bent, feet apart or together?
I'm leery to give too many tips on form as I think it's very unique for each and every archer due to physical makeup and personal strengths/weaknesses. Not to mention It's something *I* always have to work on as well.
That said- I just want to add that the most humbling Archery experience of my life was when they had a shooting seminar with Dave Cousins and Jim Despart at my local shop. They are both absolute machines. In fact Jimmy was shooting tighter groups than his Hooter Shooter was doing- I'm not kidding! They shot a spot round and Jimmy won that day, but Dave's game is field archery.
