I forgot to post the photo showing the Javie group coming back during the hero photos as if they were paying tribute to the fallen boar.

Terry,

Is this the Bateman glove you mentioned?

Thanks,Mike

Beautiful Thunderchild!

What is your draw length with that 64" bow?

Your problem makes sense to me as the longer bow has less string angle and this puts more string at your face.......especially if you have a shorter draw length.

Certainly don't shorten your draw and get out of alignment, but opening up your stance may help.

All good suggestions.  In addition, try working on your release.  In a good release, the fingers should relax and the string should push them out of the way.  In a video, it can look like the string is slicing through the fingers.

In a bad release, the shooter tries to open the fingers, so the string rolls off the fingers rather than pushing them out of the way.  Sometimes if the string rolls off your fingers, it can roll into your face.

Well after 250 guys looked at it, I guess its still a mystery.. I can't even remember where I found the thing now.

It was his Buffalo model. I thought that was cool too!

Big Jim has the best selection of woods.
