Been working on all the elements- back tension, solid anchor, follow through etc. Just wondered if you guys would offer some advise and help. Thanks Paul

OK...I see a forward creep...which is causing you to  muscle the bow a bit...and probably the cause of your bow arm dropping to the left.

I'm going back for a 2nd look.....

As far as keeping your bow arm up the fifth arrow looked real good, kinda like ole Byron.

The bow is a Northern Mist Classic. I am working on developing a system of settling in and then continue my rearward pull until I hit my brow with the string and away she goes! As long as I am riveted on the "spot" I group pretty tight and have destroyed 7 nocks with this new bow already. Thanks guys for your input

I also see the creep. Personally, it would destroy the build up of back tension for me. Unless I keep the increase of back tension constant, I'm in trouble. Its a building process that does not end at the release, but after it.
