I just recently switched to three under. I have found that it made for a little bit more forgiving release. I was haveing some major target panic issues and that is one of the many things that I tried that seemed to help some.

Started split finger in the mid 1970s. I played a bit with 3under.  Split finger works best for me.

Split finger. Tried 3 under a few times, but always come back to split.
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Goodbye Shiner you were always a good dog.

Skill is not born into anyone.  It is earned thru hard work and perseverance.

Three under is more comfy for me...I can do fairly well split finger though.

It is not an either or scenario, you need a third option: or both.  I shoot three under left handed and split right handed.
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Split finger. I tried three under a few years ago and just don't care for it.

Gene-o from Australia here guys. I shoot split, my wife and son shoot three under. I say try them both out and shoot what you feel works best for you.

Split finger for 51 years, since I was 5 years old. I have tried 3 under a few times, but this old dog can't (or won't) learn that new trick.

I used to shoot split finger when i was a kid but since i started trad again i wanted to try three under. now when i try split it seems to awkward. sticking with the three under i especially think for me three under is easier on heavier lb bows

I switched to three under a few months ago. I've seen a lot of improvement since then.
