Default Form flaws and whatnot...

Its late and I'm bored. I also like being told what I'm doing wrong, so have at it. I couldn't get that second picture to focus for the life of me, no idea why.

I'm really having problems getting the fingers on my grip hand to reallyrelax. It seems I just can't get the tension out of that hand. I don't know if its a mental deal or if I'm gripping the bow imporperly. I'm honestly thinking about finding a coach to work with, I know that if I did I would see my performance increase. Maybe I should just throw the target up in the basement and blind bale it for awhile while its cold outside.

I'm shooting decent, but I know it can be better. Its the off season and I like to mess with things, so...







I know you're all digging the Alicia Keys playing on XM on the TV too. Don't hate, it was 20 on 20.

And yes, I'm skinny!

You're up too late........you are pointing a loaded weapon around indoors.......and right at us in the last pic []


I'm no form critic by ANY means but your draw arm looks high and your draw legnth looks long.

Tried like hell to find the match to it last spring and summer, no luck though. Found two sets from smaller bucks in the process, but never did find this guy's partner.

Never found the dude rockin' them either, which is also disapointing.

I'd suggest trying to get your drawing arm elbow a little lower, more on the level with your shoulder and inline with the arrow. It'll help you with your back tension.Rotate your bow arm elbow in some, so that it's perpindicular to the floor to give the string a little more clearance from your arm.

And get your stabilizer some viagra. It looks a little... wilted. [8D]

Don't change a thing unless a qualified coach tells you to.
