Hi Adam,

The bow is a liability to be honest, but I'm quite fond of it now. Left and right misses are the order of the day. I even considered locking off the handle, not easy to do though. I'm sure with a conventional release aid it would be fine. Would a longer D-loop reduce the effect?

Cheers Rich

Yes, slightly, but it'll also screw-up your draw length. The best solution really is to eliminate the source of the torque, not cover it up. Try getting your hand flatter - try looking the the effect in front of a mirror and you'll see exactly what I mean.

Adam..Bingo! I shot tonight with a flat hand and the groups changed instantly. They jumped left too so my sight needed moving to accomodate. I'm still getting used to the new feel of he anchor point, but that won't take long. I always had an off centre sight in relation to the string and centre shot. It is now all dead centre.

Thanks Adam, have a
