Both eyes open, 1/4" G5 centering the round pin guard.

I always come up the front leg from below, to about 1/3 up the body just behind the shoulder. Coming up the front leg keeps me from shooting too far back.

When the animal is in front of me I pick my spot and concentrate on that spot like a mother!I thendraw my recurve back and hit my ancor point and release my arrow. Question for the compound people here. Why do some of you raise your bow when drawing your bow back? Personally i never did that when i was shooting compound for the simple fact ofless movement the better. Just curious.

They're trying to shoot more draw weight than they can actually handle. They think that if they can just break it over, they've got it made. poor little maroons. [8D]

1st....I draw streight back,it is said if one has to draw the bow pointing up they have too much draw weight,with proper draw weight you should be able to pull streight back with no lifting of the bow.
2nd...I shoot with both eyes open,this gives betterDEPTH perception and field of view....
3rd...I try to keep my draw right where I want the arrow to go...
I also shoot this way with Trad and Iron sight and scoped(shut my left eye just long eoughto get a site picture)long guns....

I just draw and put the pin where it needs to be.

Exactly what I do.

I know there trying to pull to much.Common sense would say i'm going to get busted sooner or later if i keep doing this! I know when i started shooting compound 21 years ago when i was a kid the old man told me don't be raising that bow when you draw your bow back, your going to get busted in the tree! I always laugh when i see people do this while shooting bow!

Generally draw concetrating on where i want to hit. I adjust accordingly then. I also shootw/both eyes open w/ peep. Made a world of difference when I went to Both eyes open.

i draw with the pins on it where i want it . I hope there is no one here aiming at the sky and pulling because if you do you have to much poundage for you to pull. if you accidental release it going who knows where
