Not sure I understand this one, if my shoulder alignment was pointing to the right of the target then my arm would have to be pushed back behind that alignment to put the sight on the gold, I'm certainly not doing that at the moment. I currently stand with shoulders in line with the target, 90deg to the shooting line so everything is straight. I think bow arm does stick forward of that alignment a little. I try really hard not to push or move my bow arm once the draw has started, as I have found that doing so can cause this pain in the past. I'd eradicated the pain by locking my arm before the draw, but with the additional poundage it doesn't seem to be working.

Thanks for the advice guys.
