I feel like I get a smoother release with 3 under, but my bows seem quieter with spit finger so I choose quiet.

Both, If Im close say 5 yards 3 under gives me a lower impact point, with same anchor.

I voted my conscience here Steve. I shoot split left handed (my dominate), but I shoot three under right handed. And, yes I am a true ambidextrious shooter. I shoot equally poor with either hand.

3-fingers under by far and away more consistently accurate for me. Noise and speed seem to be the same...shot split for 22 years and can't imagine going back.

There's just something that doesn't feel right to me about 3 under. Who knows!? Split for me. Matt

I started out split finger many years ago. When I was trained for NASP they teach three under. I shifted. I don't notice any real difference so hhave stuck with three under so I can demonstrate the recommended form when I shoot with my students.

Split for me. I tried three under with my longbow and it seemed louder and I was less consistent.

Once again it depends on the bow!
On my target bows, split is required by target rules.
on my hunting bows - 3 under
on my longbow with a nocking button - 3 under
on my self bows with no nock point (not allowed) split
Do I get to vote 5 times here also?

I was taught to shoot split finger when I was 8 or 9 years old about 40 years ago. I've tried 3 under and gap shooting but I could never get used to it. Seems like it should work better but for me it doesn't. Split finger instictive works best for me.
