I draw like that because it is the only way I know how to draw. I posted to see other methods. I draw like that on every bow from 50 pounds to 70 pounds. The bow is not too heavy for me. I will try another way today. Thanks for the input.
Not tryin to get on ya. I could pull a 70-80 pound bow but sure can't hunt with it. My brother, boldplate, could probably pull a 150 pound bow, but he would not think of hunting with it, or even shooting it regular. He tore his rotator cuff from weight lifting. It sucks, he almost had and may have to have surgery on it. I ain't kidding!!

Hold the bow out between you and the target, pull it back. No leaning, swaying, or bending knees. If you can't pull it, turn it down.

The problem is it is at 60 lbs now. I cannot turn it down more. If I had my other bow I could get it to 50, but I don't.

Well, I worked on drawing it back. I can comfortably do it at 60 pounds right now. I will continue to work on it.

Good to hear your more comfortable at 60... do you notice a difference?

When you do get it back, how long can you comfotably hold it back without shaking or anything?

I don't think I could draw like that.LOL

I point the bow and arrow at the target and pull with it pointing at the target the whole time, straight back. I don't want the arrow going where I don't want it to if something should go wrong (it does).

Me too. Except I push out the bow and draw to anchor at the same time.

I noticed a big difference. I like drawing that way. I can hold it back for quite some time.
