Thank you fmscan! I'm working really hard at it and hope to shoot half as good as Terry one day.

Amazing! trailing the thumb and then the finger across the mouth to anchor on the farside of the jaw instantly stabilized my shot from 5m! Although the consistency of being at the same spot is helping here, I think The act of this "tactile" strategy definitely helps me focus as well.

Great question, great answer... thanks for posting!

Sorry about jumping on this post but....

Terry, thanks for the thorough explanation on your double anchor. I've started incorporating it into my form just yesterday and I noticed right away that it felt more "solid" than just my single anchor. Only thing for me is that my shots are going low and right now. Not much mind you, but its there. I just went out and shot a little bit more this morning and it seemed to be getting a little better than it was yesterday but still a hair low and right? Any ideas?

That is almost an exact copy of how I shoot.

Actually figured this out for myself today after a bunch of shooting. I was concentrating on getting to that second anchor and it actually increased my draw length a hair. So what was going on is that instead of fully engaging my back muscles I was drawing more with my arm right at the end of the shot sequence. That it turn pulled my left shoulder, and consequently my bow arm, to the right and slightly down.
