2nd one on traditional stuff
« on: May 12, 2009, 09:19:30 PM »
Where do some of you guys anchor or what do you do to ensure each time so it is repetitive for traditional.  I have been switching between a couple places and trying to see what works for others and give that a try before I'm completely set on a way.

I put the tip of my index finger at the corner of my mouth.

Yea, I have been going between that and the tip of my nose, I guess trying to better site down the arrow.

For the last 20 years or so I drew with a release and anchored the feather in the corner of my mouth, so I have been using the tip of my finger in the corner of my mouth!

Thumb to the jaw bone and and middle finger tip to the corner of the mouth... I try to use a 2 point anchor to keep it consistant as possible.

Find what is comfortable and repeatable...thats all there is to that... NWWA is what I do. For top accurracy... a consistent anchor is KEY!

Thumb knuckle into my corner of my mouth.  I don't even think about it.  I just had to fake draw to figure it out.
