I can't post a picture, but practice/try this:

Draw & anchor as if you are going to shoot straight out from your elevated position.  Now, bending only at the waist, bring tour whole body forward, until the sight picture is correct.

someone will have a pic.

Good luck.

Your upper body should be just as it is on the ground.  Bend and twist at the waist to accomidate the angle . . . as much as possible anyhow.  Sometimes you just have to break form.

That's why all target practice from a lawn isn't the best method.  Practice in the woods on stumps or grass tufts from odd angles and postures; kneeling, feet pointing away from the target, bent under a branch, etc.
