Well it's Columbus Day and I am off today. I am sitting here bored out of my mind and decided to give you guys another "Form" to critique. After posting my thoughts on GMMAT's "Form" thread I decided I would like to hear what he as well as everyone else thinks I can improve on. For starters, I think my release arm looks a little high. Come on guys help me out.

Well I would go hunting is i was bored.

I like Kingford charcoal. Doesn't look like a good place for the lighter fluid though.

Wish I could... Truck is at the shop getting new tires anda few other things fixed. Besides it's too damn hot. I hunted moning and evening on both sat. and sun.and told myself that I wasn't going again until we got some relief from this 90+ degree weather.

LOL!!! when I said critique me I meant critique my form. Not why i'm not hunting or why my lighter fluid is where it's at or why I use kingsford charcoal lighter but not kinsford charcoal. LOL, you guys are brutal today. I guess I asked for it.

Your grip on the bow is too tight. That "finger wrap-around" technique is a sure fire way to torque your bow. Loosen your hand so there is no tension in the hand or fingers.
It's hard to tell from the pic, but your sling looks too tight. The sling should be loose around your wrist, not pulled tight.
Your hand position on your release indicates that you are ready to "punch" the trigger to get your shot off. I would go with a more relaxed hand position and pull with your back as opposed to firing the release with a quick jerk of your index finger.

DL looks fine and the rest of your form is pretty good.

I made myself that same promise after sweating completely through my lightweights. Form looks good, everything is in line.

If you notice the garden hose is close by. So I can put out any fires if need be. Give me a break, I did a little BBQing last evening.

It looks like you're leaning into the string a little......And yes, your release arm is too high. I'm not sure, but your DL may actually be a tad too short....

Relax the fingers on your bow hand. They should curl naturally alongside the grip. I think you also need to lock your bow shoulder down, it looks all tensed up and collapsed...I would also relax the fingers of your release hand as well.

Exactly what I was thinking. This may be a rare time when someone is shooting a bow that is too short for them. If it is, it's not much and it's better than too long. Of course this could be fixed by turning your front leg out and opening your stance some. You do look like your gripping the bow with the thumb and pointer finger. Relax the hand.

Overall looks good.
