| Several things can be added I feel. If the fingers are above and below the arrow, the string will try to squeeze them onto the arrow nock. This has caused problems for some on this forum. All the fingers above or below the arrow gets rid of that tendency to pinch. The higher the fingers are on the string,( within reason) the higher you can raise your sight, if the hand reaches the same references each time. The bow hand is below the arrow and with the string hand also below, they are more in line with each other.This has implications that may require tillering the bow differently.
I can see why mole1961 thinks as he does.Perhaps better release and even release are not necessarily the same thing? I suspect they are not.
Another option is two fingers below, with the index finger only just resting above the arrow. No pinching, but perhaps the two fingers are not able to hold the draw weight. Sometimes three fingers are put on the string as in freestyle but the bottom finger takes little or no weight. This seems to be the most even spread. Pinching and finger strain could be a problem though.  |
