Default Short bow anchor points

Alright I've never had a bow under 38 inches. I'm setting up my buddys Reflex excursion (Very nive for $270). It is 34 inches axle to axle. I can't really tell him a good place to anchor. I'm under the jaw, and this works fabulous. If i put the peep so he anchors under his jaw i cannot get his sight high enough(Bow limbs get in the way of viewing the sight). If he anchors on the side of his face he has to tilt his head to look through the peep, and i don't want him to have to do that. Anybody know of any ideas, Im out. Thanks if you have any ideas.

Default RE: Short bow anchor points

My bow is 32 inches ATA and I anchor directly under my ear lobe. My trigger finger sits right along my top molars and my index finger knuckle (the knuckle at the hand) is just touching my ear lobe, the release is riding along my bottom molars. With my anchor at this point I don't have to lean my head over at all. The string touches my nose and the corner of my mouth.

I anchored the same way with my 35 inch bow as well.
