Looks pretty good, Millerhunter. Also does not look like you are over-bowed like many bowhunters.

Miller excellent work so far!!! As for being accurate, it will come. Thats why I stress to keep your eyes closed while doing this, results will come but not instantaneously. What you are doing is actual practice! I would suggest doing this 25-30 times a day with your EYES CLOSED for a couple weeks at the least, the biggest part of being moreproficient is the COMMITTMENT to learning it, ifpeople really want to get betterthey'll put in the time PRACTICING not shooting, if they are not, they will be shooting groups in as little as a few hours looking for the instant result. The others are correct, even just a pic from front, back and even above, usually a mirror on the ceiling when avail will help see your form better.
If you are not shooting in a league right now and stick to eyes closed there are some aiming practices you can do after some time.

Overbowed means you are shooting a draw weight that, under optimum conditions, you can get it back with maximum effort. When you are cold, in a treestand in December, and the buck of your dreams comes strolling by; you either can't get the bow drawn back or start shaking uncontrollably at full draw. I can tell by the smooth manner in which you are drawing the bow that you are likely not overbowed.

I need to do what others have suggested here -spend the next month or so shooting a big target about six feet away with eyes closed; concentrating on getting a consistent clean surprise release every time. Does wonders for shooting form. Often called "Blind Bale" shooting. Therapy for form nasties.
