I need advice on proper posture/form?
I've been shooting acompound bow for several years now, but feel that I can improve my accuracy through proper form? I'm not sure if my bow arm should be ever so slightly bent or fully extended. I've also been working on my grip to alleviate torque. Where should my shoulders line up in relation to the target line? Surely all of this matters or am I being too technical. Any helpwould be greatly appreciated.
Just so you know, my draw length and anchor points are fine...for now.
Thanks

RE: I need advice on proper posture/form?
i think you shouldn't bend your bow arm. i don't think you should lock it either. it should be as relaxed as you can get it, and straight. bending it makes you use your muscles which is not good imho. to see which is stronger go lean against a tree with a bent arm and see how long you can do it compared to having your arm straight. the less muscle involvement the better and more repeatable you form can be. but, in the end its whatever works better for you.
