Just my opinion.

Hi Adam,
I know what you mean, I use that method on my recurve. Strange that the grip has to be modified for the compound...but that's how it is. (For me )
Just in case anyone else makes an observation (But, PLEASE DO) my elbow is at the pre-draw position, My head is just about where it will stay until the end of the shot. Also I'm not using my Cascade. You may have noticed that there is no arrow loaded, (I'm in the wrong direction ) so I have only partial resistance to the mass weight of the bow, therefore, things may not be EXACTLY as they could be. I did not want Sam to be on the wrong side of the shooting line with his camera. His Dad might have had other ideas

timmpa: nice pic's. I get my beginners to get close to what you are doing, they find a big improvement almost straight away
