BowsanAiros-
Thanks again for everything. I'm going to spend a couple night this week blind baling a new release then in the middle of the week go back to your drill. I'll keep you up dated.

Started using this the first of the week and have noted much improvement. I spent alot of time working on my form and release the last few months and it all seems to be coming together now. It was easier with sights and a release, but this is much more rewarding. As I read here before, I feel like a kid again.

Bowsan, In step #1 you mention "dialing in" and spoke of small adjustments with the feet to bring the group together on the spot. Could you explain that a bit more. Not sure what my foot placement ought to be. Should it be what a person is most comfortable with?

What happens when you have to shoot at an odd angle.... do you have to reset your feet? Or.... what if you're shooting out of a treestand... or sitting in a ground blind? How does your technique compensate for these things.... if it requires your lower body to participate in so critically in the shot?

I lock my back in a "T" and start the target address by pointing my shoulders in-line at the target, and that includes elevation as well as windage. Lean into a low target from the waist or up from the waist for elevated targets. This makes for a closed stance - but that gives me a longer draw and more "oomph" for the bow. In doing this my foot placement is less of an issue. On slopes I may keep my right foot well behind me to "outrigger" for balance, and I can lean far forward to get under brush or branches keeping the same upper-body platform. Works even if you have to twist at the waist, and I practice that often - even taking shots with my toes pointing away from the target.

I'm starting my bridge program tomorrow and wanted to have this thread at the top so I can implement it in. Thanks again BowsanAiros!

Thank You Mr. Lane
I shoot with an open stance and this aids me with a swing draw and solid anchor. I try to use the aim small hit small philosophy. At times I point of aim reference and at times I shoot instinctive depending on the yardage. I find that consistency is the key. Appreciate All you have put into this!!!!!

Does anyone know why none of bowsanairos is showing up in this?

I can see everyone else's just not his and am very interested in knowing what the steps are.
