That's a fairly normal anchor if you're shooting split fingers.  Might be a little high if you're shooting 3 under.  Not extremely high in either case, though, so there might be something else going on.  Feel free to send in a video of your shooting, if you like, and maybe somebody will come up with something.

Aim small, what the farthest you want to shoot?

Aim Small
Shorter arrows lengthen your gap.  Longer arrows will shorten the gap.

If you gap shoot, do you tend to hold at anchor longer in order to set the gap?

I anchor long enough to quickly establish the gap to get me in the ball park and then concentrate on the spot I want to hit, a couple of seconds at the most.
