You are making the right move by using back tension but my first suggestion would be to set the bow up for it.What I mean is reset your peep and draw length accordingly and shoot that release only for a good while.Switching back and forth will only complicate things and the back tension will be made much harder because the setup isn't "perfect".Also,don't let frustration stop you.You will get frustrated,but work through it.I don't mean to the point of not having fun,if you reach that point,then switching back and giving it another try later might be right for you.This is actually what I had to do and I am glad I went back to it.



If you can,get someone that shoots backtension to watch you and give you pointers,if you have a coach available,that would be even better.Form and draw length are very critical,especially the release arm position when firing a backtension.


I saw a post sometime ago that stated the muscles used to get a back tension to go off are the same muscles used to keep the bow from creeping.I don't know if it will help you but it isolated the muscles and made it come easier for me.



As others have stated,stay close for a while and good luck.
