Anything you guys notice would be helpful. I'm trying to tune up my form a little. If you need another angle just tell me and I'll get it.

Thanks

The first thing I noticed was that you were shooting with a closed stance, which I assume is causing you to lean out like that.  When you open up your stance you can stand stright up and just lean your head.  Something to think about.

you seem to be fighting that bow, and ur not anchoring at all.Maybe lighter longer bow would help. good luck

You may consider this.

You look like your releasing just before anchor and then you pass back as if you were trying to maintain tension but the arrows already gone.

First thing I noticed was your little boy shooting next to you.  Too cute.

That is what I noticed as well.

I'm not sure if you are coming to an anchor or not, there seems to be a consistent spot that you are releasing the arrow. Your hand is going straight back at release, and your bow hand is nice and steady, both would indicate to me your alignment is pretty good.. This is an observation from someone fairly new to the sport. I'd like to see a video of your groups @ 20yrds with that form, I bet they are pretty  good.- Steve

You are headed in the right direction...just comming up short at the moment.  You are short drawing, and quick firing, and not getting full extention.  

You alignment starts out looking good, but never lines up and your back tension is after the shot.

Slow your draw down, and find an anchor...a double anchor would even be better to consistantly line you up and aquire back tension.

Like I said, you are headed in the right direction...stay after it.

So would I be wrong saying his stance is no good?  Sorry I'm new to all this and that is just what I read from a book, that you were supposed to stand straight up and tilt your head.  I'm also guessing that what Dozer is doing is called snap shooting?

Curtis....some call it snap shooting, but there are a LOT of snap shooters that are great shots.  There was a thread here discussing the miss use of the term a while back.  Howard Hill, Fred Bear, Ben Pearson, Ron LaClair just to name a few....and I have several personal friends and hunting partners that are crack shot snap shooters.  Guru, Charlie Lamb, Joe Coots just to name a few.  I'm a snap shooter also.

Stance....everyone should have a 'backyard' stand for practicing their 'go to' shot...but in the field we don't get the luxury of the perfect stance most times.  If you are properly aligned, stance really doesn't matter as form is really from the waist up.

I thought Fred Bear WAS a snap shooter???

Yeah...I listed him above.

O sorry.
