Form Review VIDEO

[CO_Redneck]

Hey Trad Gurus....

Would ya'll mind taken a look at a quick form video and critique it? Keep in mind I'm shooting at a target that is lower than my waist....

Thanks all!!

I think your elbow goes too high. It looks awkward too me.

[TomMcDonald]

Howerver, everything else looks good.

[Trad]

Little dark but ok.

I think it looks good, but the release does not look as smooth as it could be.  When shooting fingers with my "other" bow I would just relax and open up my hand.  Maybe it is because the video is a little dark, but it looks like you are "plucking" the string on the release.  I am rookie with trad so if you know something I don't, let me know.

First off I'm new to shooting, but I'd say some plucking issues. When I'm letting the arrow go my hand is open and my fingers brush along the side of my face and my finger(hand open)is close to or on my shoulder. You might have to exaggerate this feel and make a concience effort to get them there but it I think it would make for a better shot. I didn't notice if the back of the string hand is flat and if your cupping your wrist or not but might be something to look at. Great video! lots of angles. - Steve

looks good, how are your groups?
solid bow arm, and alignment looks good.

your form looks good, very consistent, good alignment, and good follow through.

Looks pretty good to me.....I 'think' I'm seeing a slight forward creep just before release.  Which could be the cause of your string hand coming away from your face a bit.

Alignment looks pretty good.
