Anyone use this as an additional anchor point
« on: August 12, 2010, 12:41:00 PM »
In addition to hand placement to my jaw bone and middle finger in the corner of my mouth. Does anyone else use the Cock feather barely touching their nose? (Im shooting 3 under)

I use the feather barely touching my lip as one of my anchor points.
Chasing my kids and my degree for now but come next fall the critters better look out.  ;)

Shooting cock feather in, when I feel the odd hen feather resting on the corner of my face, I know I'm where I should be.

Yes I use the same anchor also I touch the string gently to my right eyebrow and thumb knuckle right in front of ear lobe near jaw. My feelings 3 anchors are better than 1-2.

3 under. Index finger in the corner of my mouth. Cock feather touching my nose. Works for me.
