Jim,
Maybe you' re too hung up the style Asbell teaches. Just because he shoots like a ' house a fire' doesn' t mean it' s the be all,end all for everyone. I' m not familiar with the " Asbell Method" , but I' m a believer in finding your own shooting style. Why not beg/borrow a 40-45# bow and go outside with a light heart and try all manner things? Maybe you' ll find that an anchor and " hold until the brain lines things up" is right for you. Maybe it' s some other method. At least with a much lighter rig you' d have the lattitude to try various (and maybe obsure) techniques.

Go out and have FUN with it!
