If you keep the bow arm static then you are forcing it to stay there and not allowing it to react to the forces that were applied through the shot. It's not a forced response but a reaction.
Remember you are playing tug of war with the bow and when the shot fires that tug is gone from it's end, you should let your body react accordingly otherwise you WILL get exactly what you are trying to avoid.
