Do I look fat with that bow ?
 
Or, what about my form ?
I was posting threads about shooting longer distances and was wondering if I could improve my form some more, so....
check out the youtube links, one is me and the smaller one's my girlfriend's son who is getting hooked as we speak.....

Well for one, your shooting off the wrong side of the bow.:D Just jokin man. I'm no form guru so it looks good to me. When i get vids of mine, some of you all might vomit. My elbow bends in an unnatural way for a normal person. Pretty good shooting if you ask me.

The 1 issue I see is the release elbow never gets back and in line with the arrow.It is pointed way out toward the camera.


This was one reason I increased the length of my d-loop.It helped me get my elbow back and at the same time,allowed me to keep the ancors on my face with the string the way I like.

T, I did some experimenting myself with the Dloop length and I found that too long made me stretch my bowarm too much and shortening the draw made me lose my anchorpoint.
I forgot to mention that after my surgery I have a "blind" spot on my cheek where I can't feel enough. I had to change it further upwards and now I have my thumb under my ear.
Tomorrow if the weather permits, I'll be shooting outside to get better footage.

I was hoping to hear from you, you have one of the cleanest shots I ever saw....

thx

Frank
