Just wait untill you get that draw length adjusted.


Also,try rotating the bow hand at more of an angle to get the palm off the grip.

I like to say to rotate the forearm out but not the elbow.

If I could ever get rid of my double set and get a bit cleaner release,I might try to get back into the competition game.

Atta boy Dave. If you get a chance, post us another video and let us see the changes. You'll see your shooting improve. It's better to shoot a bow that might be slightly short than it is slightly long, perfect is always best.

MY FRIEND USED TO OWN A BOW SHOP WHERE I USED TO DO SERVICE WORK,YOUR FORM IS GOOD BUT YOUR DRAW LENGTH SHOULD BE 27 1/2 ITS A FULL INCH TO LONG,PLUS WHEN YOUR BOW IS RESTRUNG YOU WILL HAVE TO RESITE YOUR PINS

Will post another video tomorrow hopefully , shortened draw by 1/2" and feels more comfortable than before ( infact , feels great ) . I have had to reset 20yd pin and will do the rest tomorrow ( ran out of daylight today and also had to wrestle my kids , they go home tomorrow and i try to make most of my time with them ) .
The guys at the Merlin Archery centre were great , they gave everything the once over and even put new shims on the limbs for free( cuz they were worn ) . He's done a great job on the string and cables and the G/T XT hunters and quickspinswork amazing .
QAD ultra rest , quiver and new sight will see me done , thank goodness christmas is coming .

Dave

Nice looking setup you got there our UK brother.

If you've set your 20 and you moved your whole sight plane ( all pins moved together and pin gap wasn't changed) I doubt you'll need to set anymore. They'll go with the the 20 and your speed wouldn't have changed enough to warrant a new pin gap.

Looking forward to the improved video. Congratulations.
