I hate when I get my arm slapped. Check your draw length

it very well could be draw length but since u never had a problem before and now all of a sudden its happening i would check your grip position first if u keep ur hand angled away from the bow when u draw and favor the thumb side of the v of ur grip it should fix the problem

Jeremy, in your avatar it is clear your draw length is a bit too long. Your leaning back into the draw, your not in a full upright. Just an observation.

Not only that, but if you also look at his wrist, it's bent. If we could see his elbow, I would bet it's pointing toward the ground.

(Impressive, huh?? LOL....[&:])

Also check your grip.. that your not sinking to far in with you palm. If that makes any sence.
