Do they sell mens clothes where you got that shirt?

Shorten the release, don't shorten the DL on the bow. Align your feet/hips/shoulders and keep your head upright, and take another pic for us.

Buddy Buddy As king I pronounce you banishedfrom posting any picstill you get a new shirt. LMAO !

And that brings me to a different point. Forget the satin shirt men.............Somebody get this kid a Cheesesteak and show him where the weightroom is! Please!

Hope your one of the guys who can take the fun, because I am sure I wont be the last to throw a jab in there.

Good luck, PS Form looks good, try and relax a little bit more, you might be a little to stiff.(The again it might just be the shirt ;))
Oh, I won't take offense to anything. I have been around here long enough to know how you guys work.....;)

if your arrows are hitting in the same spot, your form is great

if they're not, THEN you probably need to change

form is way overrated IMO
If you're a gifted athlete.....I tend to agree. But from my teaching days (golf).....I can tell you that proper form makes it easier to perform a MORE repeatable task. To bolster YOUR argument....I'd submit Jim Furyk's golf swing. To bolster mine....I'd submit 95% of the other touring professionals doing it with almost identical fundamentals.

Knowing what I know, though....you'd NEVER "teach" anyone to do something in a non fundamental manner.......or, at least, not anyone you wanted to succeed.;)


ditto and to add,the form gets to be more important when things aren't perfect.

I believe the shirts comments have been covered (I would be dissapointed if they weren't;))


Form looks good Lucan, only thing I can see is maybe shorten that realease or put it further up your forearm and tighten it down.

Your form actually looks fairly good. Everyone's physical makeup is a little different - but you could be a tad long on draw length. Try either a Tru Ball Short/N Sweet or a Scott Silver Horn release. Tighten the connecting strap to where you canjust comfortablybrace your index finger behind the trigger duringthe draw cycle.

Also, great looking bow! You might want to check the cam timing on a draw board. From the photo, it looks like the top cam might be a little over rotated at full draw.

I noticed something after looking again. Do you see where the second knuckle is on your index finger? Right under the ear? That's just about where the third knuckle should be when you are at full draw. That difference is probably about 1 1/2".

I noticed also that along with the release being long you could shorten the loop a lot too.

And don't let these guys get away with ragging on your shirt. I'll bet there are more than a few who would just love to able to get into one of those things and look that good. Might even be a few that can't see their toes except when looking in a full length mirror. LOL You're young. Flaunt it.

That loop does seem too long. I keep my loop shortso Ihave just enough room to clip on myrelease on. You look like you might have a half inch gap there.
