Hello Could anybody tell me if the new Carter Solution 3 is smaller from the jaws to where your fingers sit than the Target 3, only i want my anchor point to come back towards my mouth,I am useing a Cater Target 3 and my anchor point is to far back nearer my jaw, I shoot with a d loop on my bow:christmas

Hope this isn't a silly suggestion, but have you tried a shorter D loop?

Second question..why do you want your anchor closer to you mouth? Surely your jawbone is a more positive anchor, and it is possible, without knowing you physiology, that your elbow is more in line, with a anchor point that is further back.

Thanks Geoff. I wil try to shorten my D loop.
At the moment i shoot with a Cascade with a rope i tried it wihout the rope which makes my anchor point as i would like it but i can not shoot as good without the rope on my Cascade, I have lent a Carter Target 3 but it is the same length as my Cascade with the rope and i cannot get the to group as good as the Cascade thats why i wondered if the Carter Solution 3 is smaller as the jaws seem to be different.
Regards John

I agree with wim, the Solution 3 is not as good as a specialised release.
Adjust your bow's draw length or your Dloop to get your anchor in the correct position. Changing release aids to do this is a rather expensive excersize.

i just am going to work on only one thing more that is that my nock from my arrow doesnt pas my mouth corner when anchored !!
what do you think of that marcus?

I don't take nock position into account, more albow position and shoulder alignments. I only worry about whether my draw elbow is sitting in the line of force correctly, where that places my hand I deal with then.
