It's exactly as he has asked, not to show off his sportswear! 
He wants opinons and thoughts on his form! An incredibly important aspect of ANY successful, consistent shooting! Can't tell that much from the small photo about important aspects such as overall head position or the degree that you left elbow is unlocked. It doesn't look that bad however.

RE: Another critique my form post.
who took the picture and why did they let you draw down on them with an arrow in the nok?
other than that it looks alright... bend at the waist.. and stand with yoru feet no more than shoulder width apart because there are few stands that are that wider than that...
good luck

The most important part of form is not shown on the photos. Most important is what happens during and after the shot. You can look as good as you want while drawing the bow and holding, however to get the best shots possible you MUST not anticipate the shot or take your eye off the target, and make sure you have a good follow through. That is more imprtant than what are are trying to be critiqued on.

Fingers relaxed on the grip, slight bend in the elbow (hurts when not bent doesnt it?), looks like a good anchor point, do you shoot 2 eyes or just posing for the camera? All in all looks pretty darn good to me. Like Elkcrazy8 said the most important part is after the shot. More so to me is the follow through. Keep it up looks good.
