John, he also said his release is just as bad as everyone else's....now if ya can believe that <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>! He said "but if you'll hold that bow arm still, the release ISNT GOING TO MATTER MUCH".
I think they all tie in to eachother, bow arm and release hand, if you jerk/pluck with your release hand, you are inevitably going to jerk with your bow hand...some folks its a little...some folks look like they might as well be shooting at a vehicle doing 65mph on the freeway when it happens! Keep the proper back tension or keep 'pulling' through your shot you wont pluck and you wont jerk...its your body 'colapsing' in most shooters that create these 2 very deadly 'sins' in shooting!

Anyone think of using a string loop and a mechanical release? Very clean releases! On the serious side, the big trouble with gloves is that once they wear in, they're worn out! I like using the thinnest glove that I can find (Most supple) and build up the calouses. Dick
