Form's the same as it was in the photo, I think. What I have done is relaxed mybowhand to where myfingertipsare "lightly" touching the front of the riser at the grip, now. Feels much more "relaxed".

That was one thing I would have mentioned.

RE: Going shorter on the DL
 
The first picture is of me with my Ross. I was WAY overdrawn with this bow, it was before I exchanged modules. This was how it came to me. But notice where the string touches my nose. Imean I was WAYYY overdrawn, I got the modules the next morning ;)






Here is me with my Vectrix XL. This is right before I stripped all the hunting stuff off of it. Now she sports target stuff. The draw length with this release is/was a little long, but it was comfortable. With my Carter T-Handle, it's perfect. My elbow is a tad high, which is contributed to my low aiming point, regardless it's a little higher than I want. With my other release though it's pretty good. Once again, notice where I have the bow pulled to on my face. Same spot, I don't know why, but that's where I feel comfortable.





And I do miss the Ross a little, but I still like the Hoyt a little better ;)


We'll see what happens in the near future, I'm about to start working with someone. Between him and Matt (Rick James), I think I'll be in good shape, soon. We'll see where the scores go.

I find a drawlength is better off shorter shooting out of a tree stand on the close shots, just a little short not a lot short.

Maybe it's a optical illusion, but your nocking point looks pretty high to me.

The days of the finger nail polish collored 10,15,20 yd pins....lol
Or if you were really fancy you found some glow in the dark jig paint and held a flashlight on it before daylight.:D
