RE: Anchor Problems
tilting it to one side or the other.
As far as outshooting everyone you know... it depends upon who you know. Seriously. There's a TON of weekend warriors around here who break out their bow once a month -- at best. I'd hate to set my standard based on their ability, or lack thereof.
I remember when I was coming up in the tennis ranks as a teenager; I could ALWAYS beat my age group, but that wasn't my goal: I wanted to be the best I could be. I was having to travel several states and play opponents MUCH older than I was to keep progressing. The same will be true in any sport, bowhunting included.

RE: Anchor Problems
A kisser would probably help alot. Better yet... get a nose kisser or button. That way you'll feel it even with a mask on. Sounds like you have a bit of a floating anchor for sure. Double check that you're not CREEPING TOO. These high speed bows are really finicky with a little creep. The answer of course is correct draw length and back tension.... a nose peep will help with the creep. If you don't feel the pressure somethings wrong.
