Shooting Style
« on: February 26, 2013, 08:47:24 pm »
This has topic has come up before I'm sure. Anyway just curious as to how most of you shoot, 3 Under or Split.
Won't get into the tillering aspect as that will no doubt cause a huge controversy and and I have read about it enough, big time.

3 under,drawing slowly speeding up on the last ten " .a sliding anchor on my jaw bone between my thumb and index until the fletch just touches my cheek bone,all in one fluid motion,no hold time.I find I get the best arrow flight this way.

Did the Native Americans think about all this that much or just do it?

Mediteranian I think, is this what you guys call split? Index finger on top of arrow birdy and ring under. Don't know if my termanology is correct. Ancor is index to corner of my mouth.

I shoot split with two fingers usually, unless the draw weight goes above around 60..then I need all three fingers. For some reason my accuracy is better with two fingers.

  SPLIT
  ANKOR IN THE CORNER OF MY MOUTH ON A BACK TOOTH. I like to hold a second or so. I like that controlled filling of holding a tad while aiming.

Split.

Sometimes my nocks are a bit large or my string is a bit small and with split, I can 'pinch' the arrow on the string between my fingers when I'm not shooting.
