mine is around 8 to 9 seconds from lifting the bow to loose.....but then I am currently spending extra time checking many different things before aiming.
On my best days- when everything is flowing nicely it's nearer 6 seconds.

I've found that anything longer than around 9 seconds just wont hit where I want no matter how hard I try to make it happen - for me the set-up is obviously wrong and needs to be re-started. After 9 seconds I am stressed, frustrated, impatient and find myself 'just wanting to let go'...it's not a strength issue, but after 9 seconds I begin to lose commitment to the shot.
