    I find I don't care so much about arrow trajectory when the bow string nearly takes my nipple off. At times like those, I don't care if I'm in the yellow or not. I could see it being a real advantage the way traditional Asiatic archers lean forward - no nipple pain!

    Hi Jake, love the videos. Question about proper alignment. I'm double jointed on the elbow. I watched your form series and the recent alignment video. When I try it, my elbow hyper extends leaving my bicep getting string slapped. Any advice?

  • @lordcarnorjax8599
    @lordcarnorjax85992 жыл бұрын

    Very interesting video. I suspect I've probably got poor form in this way. If I shoot without a chest guard the shot feels strange and can be poor. Generally only take one shot before I realise I've forgotten to put on my chest guard. Would having a longer bow make this worse? I'm 6'2" burly chested, 31" draw and currently use a 72" bow but had been thinking of going to a 74" bow due to string angle, I've got a pretty decent callus on my index finger which I think is due to the string angle. No callus' on other fingers.

    Do you think this also creates more clearance for string slap? I rotate my elbow quite well, but still get string slap with anything except the most perfect release.

    Superb....pless tell about Expansion..which force used Externaly or internally.How to do expansion in archery. It's internal expansion or external expansion. My point is what internal force should be done or if so what forces should be expanded.

    So you are telling me that +20 years sitting in front of computers is now actually useful in archery? I thought the opposite, that you should stand straight, and that's why I've been "over correcting" my posture while shooting. I've only 6 months of archery behind me and having a bit of problem sometime with string catching on something. I'll try to stand "normally" next practice time.
