Hey Guys,
Considering trying to shoot 3 under, just curious as to anchor points you 3 under guys use. Thanks.
-
I shoot 3 under and i put my middle finger in the corner of my mouth.
-
Thumb knuckle on my ear lobe and cock feather on the tip of my nose.

-
index finger in corner of mouth--if you have a horse face like me it really works great!
-
Thumb knuckle in corner of mouth. It works well except when I'm talking.
Airborne, were you in the airborne? 82nd here.
-
Index finger in corner of mouth as well. Tried the thumb knubkle on the ear lobe and cock feather touching nose. just never felt good to me.
-
Middle finger to the corner of the mouth, cock feather to nose tip.
-
Try for a hard anchor if you can find one comfortable. I use index on corner of cheek bone and thumb knuckle corner of my jaw.
-
I am with Chopx2 - Index high on cheek bone and thumb knuckle on jaw.
However, I just switched back to split.

middle finger corner of my mouth.
Really what ever feels natural to you.

I shoot 3 fingers under; index finger at corner of mouth thumb and little finger folded in palm (like scout sign). Thumb knuckle happens to be behind jawbowne. Relaxed (flat) back of the drawing hand.

Middle finger in corner of my mouth.....Randy
-
Index finger in the corner of my mouth and thumb wrapped around the back of my jaw.
-
I am like Winterhawk. Infact, I fletch my feathers so when I reach full anchor the tip of the feather just touches my nose. If my nose grows I'm in trouble! haha

PS: 2fletch is always talking....... :laughing:

I Try to keep My Thumb Anchored at the Base of Neck. Thats how I learned with the "Other" Bows, and its worked out so far on My Longbows and 'Curves!! There was an "Old Time Archer" that used to Anchor that way, My "Teacher" told me, but Danged if I can Recall the Mans Name Right Now!!!
As they say "First the Mind, and...." I dont even want to THINK ABOUTthe Next on the List!! (Hint: Its Why they sell Viagra and Such!!) EGADS!!! :scared: :goldtooth:

thumb knuckle on jaw,index finger on cheek bone and cock feather touching tip of my nose
-
Index Finger corner of mouth, fletch to tip of nose.
-
Get Rick Welch's latest video "The Accuracy Factory" and look at his double anchor. His class and techniques made all the difference in my consistency and accuracy.
-
i just reworked my anchor to thumb flat on cheek bone, nose tip on cock feather (fletched Rick Welch style) and eye brow on string. Added a metal nock point a few inches above my arrow nock so that I can feel it touching my eye brow in the same spot. Gives me a triple anchor that seems to work better than anything Ive tried so far.
-
Tip of index finger in corner of mouth, thumb knuckle at back of jaw bone, flat.
The only problem I have found with this over many years is elevation of the face/jaw. You must "set" your head the same way every time as you draw.
