Default RE: Beginner seeking advice on release technique

I'm not sure what the asbel style of shooting is.The push/pull has nothing to do with how you stand.I see some folks who draw a bow then try to hold the weight staticaly if you will.This will lead to your bow arm wandering and your release arm collapsing.Even guys who shoot as they come to anchor are pushing the bow arm forward and pulling back thru anchor.I think the point is you need to keep pulling aginst the weight of the bow,thru the release,no matter how long you hold or how you stand.I stand upright,bow slightly canted and hold for just a second or two before releasing.And yes I am a gap shooter.However the gaps are becoming "instinctive" at close range
