Knuckle of my middle finger under my ear lobe and kisser button in the corner of mouth, close my eyes and touch the trigger...

I anchor my boat with a Hoyt [:-]


I anchor my bow ... string to tip of nose, and corner of jaw nestled inbetween thumb and forefinger

The fletching is always in the corner of my mouth.

Knuckle of my index-finger right on the corner of my jaw-bone, with the knucklew of my middle finger on my ear-lobe. That way I'm at the right length of draw and I know me hand's not twisted.

Anchor! I usually just pull back and let em fly as soon as I can!

I really don't pay attention to it I guess. I know that the string touches the tip of my nose though and that is probably how I do it. It just feels natural I guess.

I place the string on the tip of my nose and my jawbone below my ear between my first and second knuckle. If you need something touching you rmouth just get a kisser button. If you don't want to do that I think you are going to just get used to something else. I am sure you will figure it out just fine for yourself.
