I've been practicing all summer long and while my shot placement has been getting better, I have struggled to stay consistent and was not feeling great going into this archery season. But after watching this video I checked my release and found I had it way too far out. I shortened it up and it helped IMMENSELY! My anchor point feels much more stable, I can hold the pin on target much easier and my shots are way more accurate because of it. Thanks for the tips!!!!!!!!!

@whoopdeedo83 5 жыл бұрын

1:59 is how Eric from the Hushin KZfaq channel shoots. Always thought it was odd but he hits accurate shots from long distances. One of those things you would never recommend to a new archer but some people find success with. I'd imagine it comes down to consistency, if you can repeat it every time then you can adjust your sight to be accurate that way, within reason of course.

Maybe cause it that I'm all tattooed and people don't take me seriously but the local bow tech won't help me for nothing and is always short and won't truly help us newer archers . I am actually a really nice person and just love archery and the tournament shooting holds my main interest. I just wish I could get the help I need as a new archer.

@Aaron-ud6wk 6 жыл бұрын

I’m a bowyer and I shoot primitive equipment. With my shorter bows I would just have a floating anchor point with minimal accuracy. Now that I shoot longer bows I have an anchor point at 28” draw length. I think my biggest problem with accuracy out to 25 yards is when I build arrows I tend to have problems with the spine. I either build them to thick or too thin. I agree though, a good anchor point and a fluid release is important.

I have a question that I’ve been wondering since I started shooting a bow. With your release hand, how far back or where should your elbow be in height and angle?

@averagejackarchery 5 жыл бұрын

As close to level with the arrow as you can get it. You don't want it at a 45deg angle to the line of the arrow, but somewhere between 0-25deg is what I've found to be optimal. But everyone is different! It comes down to comfort and consistency for you and your bow.

@michaelcagle7342 5 жыл бұрын

I set up bows for customers in large outdoor store and when I am explaining arrow spines, it is not only picking the correct spine for the poundage you are shooting, but it is also a big safety issue. Common spines are 340, 400, 500, etc. A 340 spine is stiffer than a 500. The higher the poundage you are shooting, like 70 lbs on your bow, you should be shooting most likely a 340 Arrow length, cams, etc play a part in the selection. If you shoot a 70 lb bow and shoot a very flexible arrow, say a 500, there is a good chance you will end up with that arrow snapping right after leaving your string, and possibly, ending up stuck in your arm, which could actually be life threatening if it hit an artery, so that is a major safety issue. I am always mindful of that, especially with a new person, since they are new, and know no better. I feel I would not be doing due diligence in my job, and that person, if I did not point this out to them..

This video should be included with every bow sold. Only thing I would add...is most people are over bowed. Sit in a lawn chair,with your hunting gear on,and lower your poundage until you can draw comfortably holding your bow completely level.

Depending on manufacturer, something 500 spine. Also depends on tip weight. Heavier tips weaken dynamic spine, lighter tips the opposite.

another bad habit is shooters don't burn the pin..as soon as you release..your eye and head must NEVER move until you see your arrow hit its target. this is called "peeking". this will throw the shot off a lot! it takes some time practice. But, you keep watching that arrow through you're peep site and burn the pin. you'll see the arrow hit the target.

That bow is set up at least a half an inch long if not longer. You should try getting your string to cross in front of your nose and the corner of your mouth. It will eliminate the excessive string pressure that your nose is introducing by overdrawing
