My form

[Hidden Hippo]

Wasn't entirely sure which shots you were after so I just took 4 again.

Rear shot

Front shot

Bodyshot

Back Shot

I've tried to straighten my arm properly each time, but I'm still feeling a little compound-ish.

I will start (as most have) by saying get a coach to observe you in real time, there is no replacement for this.

A couple of comments to muddy the water still further; at lest something to thing on if not to act on.

Drop your bow shoulder a little (if you can) I note this from "Bodyshot"
See if you can bring the string further towards the centre of your chin (and thus nod your head down a little to maintain contact with nose and chin) I note this from "Bodyshot"
Treat your drawing hand as a hook, not a clenched fist - straighten the back of your hand, again from "Bodyshot"
Ensure the elbow of your bow arm is going to be clear of the string when you release - something easily missed when doing reversals, again from "Bodyshot"

I see a big improvement already! Hopefully shooting results reflect this.

Good luck in your efforts.


All the above assume you do not have any limitations to your shooting form (past injuries etc.)

I occasionally get a little bit of tennis elbow in my bow arm, but nothing major. If it becomes uncomfortable when I'm shooting I just strap a support on it.
