Finding your correct anchor point
« on: February 24, 2010, 08:51:00 PM »
If you shoot one finger over and two under, in order to fine tune your shooting, you have got to get your anchor point right. To do this stand in front of a full length dress mirrow and while drawing a light weight bow come to full draw stopping at the front curvature of your lower teeth with you middle finger. While holding and looking at yourself in the mirrow move your anchor finger around the curvature tooth by tooth until you have settled on the tooth that is directly below yet in alignment with the puple of your aiming eye. This will be your correct anchor point. Do this repeatly until you know the right tooth and feel. Correct anchor point is like the rear sight on a rifle, it has to be right or if not when you point the front end of your arrow toward the target you will continuely shoot all over the target. Providing your bow and arrows are properly matched to one another, your shooting will improve. I promise-Jerry Hill
