| Hi Max,
I think I had exactly the same problem you have described and at the same stage in my archery(a few months after changing from recurve to compound)
As you may know, I am in rehab for target Panic so I perhaps can lessen some of your anxieties.
Your problem happens when all is going well(apparently ) and sometimes there is a big flinch. I used to get high right arrows when it happened.
If we are talking the same symptoms here, then try this. Close range (5m)
get settled at full draw, on aim too, with the finger/thumb behind the trigger so it can't go off. Keep the finger/thumb behind the trigger but give the release aid body a sudden squeeze with the hand. Note what happens. Repeat a few more times and note what happens.Afterwards, send me a PM describing your findings. I'm being secretive on purpose, you'll see why after the PM arrives with me. I'll reply as soon as I can. I think you are in for a surprise; you'll shoot better after this is resolved, than you did before it started to take over.
All the best for now.
