You might be torqueing the string when you release. The back of your string hand needs to be at the same angle as the bow string.

This was my first thought as well,and usually what im doing,when it happens to me.

  When you cant your bow to a spot where your looking (PICKING A SPOT). You do this unconciosely.  If you cant your bow to far,towhere you go past the spot where bows not lineing up where your looking. Canting to far is one of the reasons some people can never get any consestintly with there shooting.

 A lot of times with selfbows 20 yards is tops for most.

 You want to get rid of any string torqueing. As long as you have good form. When you release ,release with the third finger down first. Do this the other 2 can stop put to follow suit. You get the same crisp release every time   HOWARD HILL released this way.

 ARRONS correct to a point. BUT IF YOU HAVE GOOD FORM. That kills arrons point.

  If you want to shoot 30 yards forget about hunting with selfbows.

 You ever notest the father you get away for selfbows the more the people relie on thier equipment. And not there hunting skills.
