I have to ask again. Where is your anchor point for your release arm? If your pulled all the way back, how do you follow thru a shot?

My take again is 1" or more too long draw.

forearms isn't lined up with the arrow. It looks like your gripping the bow.

Could be wrong.

I agree with BC atleast an inch too long on the draw, shorten up the release, stop choking the grip and never draw the bow without an arrow loaded.

my anchor point is where my nose touches the string.

The release is still too long you should have the trigger in the second knuckle not on the finger tip at will only result in punching the trigger.

The new pic of the grip you still have too much palm into the grip you want your fingers down and away at a 45 degree angle.

draw lenth is atleast a inch too long...release is a little to long....try and grip kinda like the guy showed you in pic(only want index and middle finger wraping handle of bow)...also you need to bring your left arm up alittle more so it is level...also having a arrow when drawing back is not a big deal just dont shot bow without arrow!!...

one other thing is practice, practice , practice the new way...

try and fix a few of these and take new pic...and we will help some more

RE: How is my form?
 
ok i will try gripping the bow with my index and middle finger and bring my arm up, i cant get the release any shorter, and i asked the guy at the proshop last time a went a few weeks ago and he said it cant be anyshorter, but even though it is alittle long it is comfortable to shoot. i will post a pic later tonite right now i am someones house, i will try at around 9 ish i should be home. thanks for the help.
