Other than that shirt beeing too small.[:-]It looks much better.You have enough to work on for now.


Keep working on these things and I think you will see an improvement.

It will "feel" unaturall for a while just because you have been doing it the other way for so long.Like I said earlier.If you don't push your hips without the bow,why would you do it with it?

You may want to reconsider a nose knot. They don't weigh anything and it locks you in instantly. No searching around. This only works if you touch your nose to the string when at full draw. I've been using it for over 15 years and love it for hunting.My three reference points are my anchor point, nose button and peep. This forces you into a consistant anchor/aim. It has worked well for me. You could always try it then discard it if you don't like it.
I haven't tied a "nose knot" but I do put my nose on the string when at full draw. It definitely helps.


I posted some pics a while back requesting my form to be critiqued. I know what I need to do but doing it is another thing.

I.E. Lowering my release arm so my body forms a T-bone has got to be the hardest thing for me to overcome. I just have trouble doing this.

I can see some other problems that others haven't even considered. But, I feel I should keep my comments to myself. Good luck with your education in archery form.

I don't know how to say this in a nice way, but why bother posting that? Is it just so he knows an expert knows he's doing something wrong, but won't tell him what?

Why, because as I read all the posts I saw people trying to give him someadvice and most were getting refutted. When I ask for advice, I try to accept it all graciously and thank those who offer it. I quietly accept what I want and QUIETLY reject what I don't want.

Myresponse was made inhopes that he and othersmight comprehend what can be missed by not being more acceptable to negative criticism and criticism that maynot be applicable.
