Awesome video! The more I watch your videos the more I'm starting to think my local "Pro Shop" is not doing their job. Thanks

Newbie here. Consistent anchor point has been my issue. Didn’t know. Thanks!

Good topic, just started up shooting again and won’t stop until the seasons over. Good timing on this video for moi.

This is, without question, THE best anchor point instructional video on KZread. Thank you!

Another great video - give the damn cat a break. ;) I'm the newbie hunting for an anchor point so long I start getting bow shake. Been hunting 50+ years - picked up a bow a few months ago. It's like I started all over - and I love it. Learn something new every day.

Yours is definitely becoming one of my favorite channels

Great video as always! Thanks. You have given me things to work on.

A good anchor and aiming from my hips not my shoulders have been the 2 biggest improvements for my accuracy

That is great advice. Your content is very helpful.

Thank you again professor!

Another good video dude!! Thank you

@02:11:00 “Remember, always load an arrow, if you’re gonna draw a bow.” Damn, if I didn’t learn that the hard way 😱🤦🏽‍♂️ Gets expensive when you have a good compound bow 😩

Good advice bro, stay safe

Good advice. Using a nose button and focusing on my body position and anchor point has helped my consistency a lot

thanks for all the info. very helpful

I just went from a 27.5 dl to a 28 and with my release ser the way I like it and my anchor point is right where you explained in this video. I got my first Robin hood at 30 yards the other day and yes it was expensive but cool at the same time. At first the anchor point made me question if the DL was too long since the 27.5 had me anchoring with the v of my index and thumb around my jaw line but since the DL was change it made all the difference in the world. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge. You have been a huge help to me as I am a newbie

Good advice here. I find that if I don't find my anchor on the first try, I never really confidently find it when I try to adjust/find it for that shot

I’ve done the “horseshoe” anchor since I started and never had an issue. I started using a single pin sight a few years ago then got a new bow a year or two ago and started not being able to get the full range out of the sight. I may have to try changing my anchor. I just wish I had a shop near me.

Thank you so much. I am just getting back into shooting and just bought the new V3X 29 and this help me a lot. I felt like my draw was a touch long but if I went shorter I had to dip my head to get the tip of my nose to the string. Thank you so much. You are probably the only person I heard explain about the string angle and how it affects anchor so again thank you

great info thanks

Awesome video. Especially for me, as I just started. What sucks now is you have to wear a mask at a lot of ranges, and for a beginner, it makes it harder to really get the nose and tip of the mouth anchors. Feeling those through the mask is not great. Thanks again for great content!

Thanks!

I think I have been drawing and anchoring short. Transitioning from Olympic recurve to compound. Waaaaay different anchor point. After watching this video I have tried to get my index knuckle to a place near the corner of my jaw with my release. Close, but I think I am a bit short and cannot have relaxed shoulders. I have contacted my shop to see if I can get a module for a longer draw length. This video might really make the difference in my shooting. Thanks for always making great content.

Well lots of times your peep height will need to change from an index to handheld.

10:36 "if you watch a lot of these pros, they don't draw back and do this...." *Cameron Hanes just entered the chat* In all seriousness though, that guy is an excellent shot. Its just interesting to see different strategies work for different people.

HI. Than you for info, I needed since I'm a new into it. My problem is my nose does not touch the string but my lips and wrist have a pretty good positioning. Can I be still consistent using only 2 anchor points? Thanks in advance

I'm,.... still waiting for my Boss X so I'm sure I will have to adjust my DL (wrist release now) & kisser button, and probably my peep sight as well.

Can we get a review of the B3 Exit? I can’t seem to find any online

Question: If shooting from a tower I hold on better on target vs hitting low and less consistent shooting from the ground. Is this just because more strength is needed to hold from the ground than from an elevated position? I notice it every year

Awesome Video! it's like my best friend and me just talking about bow shooting. Wish I knew your name. but here is my question. I am a eye disability that prevents me from touching the string to my nose. When I do I can't see the target with my RH sight. with that said. I find it hard to find a repeatable anchor. which release do you think would work the best to achieve a repeatable anchor. Thanks

Got the VXR 31.5 and I can get my anchor, the string touches my nose but I’m finding that my back wall isn’t stiff and I end up almost letting down sometimes. Is it because my draw length is too long?

Can you do a video on anchor with a slider sight and how that effects your anchor

That would be a very interesting to see what the difference is...

I'm struggling to get a consistent anchor right now with my index style release. The hand position you showed for a handheld release feels way more comfortable and natural to me. Is it possible some people would benefit from changing their release to a different style based on their face/jaw shape?

@axnovs9726

If it feels right, do it? I had consistency issues following tips from others so developing my own "process" where I focused on getting my thumb bend pressed into my jaw line first, then rotating my hand in until my index knuckle presses agaisnt the tragus of my ear. Had to play around with how much pressure I jammed into my ear but always came back to a sweet spot between firm and uncomfortable and it's been working.

I do a good job on anchor point with my hand on my face,but cannot ever touch my nose to the string. Tried shorting draw lenght,but help. My eye wouldn't line up for peep.

Does this still apply to those wearing glasses like myself?

Iv been wondering why i cant get more than 80 yards out of my Mathews 70# draw 27.5 !!!

Question!👋🏼....I think I just realized I’m measuring my peep wrong. Is it from the nock point up the string to the peep? Or 90deg. Up to the peep at full draw from the arrow shaft?

Should you be able to slide the peep by hand? Or should it be so tight it has to be re-served? Also, do you "mark" your peep serving with a paint pen so you can check to see if it moves throughout the season?

Your rest is too far inside of center shot. Move it until the arrow,rest and string line up through the center of the grip and riser shelf

Could be torquing your bow hand,or not facing target correctly

Due to an accident as a child, I had the cartridge removed from my nose, which resulted in a flat nose. I have to tilt my head extremely in order to touch my nose to the string. I currently use the corner of my mouth and jawline as anchor points. Any suggestions on getting my nose on the string or is it needed? I shoot pretty well, but would like to get better.

@jamescoleman3024

You could try the Bowmar nose button (or something similar) he talked about in the video. Would depend a bit on amount of cartilage removed, but using the large button would maybe ‘replace’ 1/8” -1/4” of cartilage. Could always add a thick bead of a rubberized adhesive around it to allow your nose to touch even earlier. And/or, you could try the ala of your nose instead of the apex. Just my thoughts... no expert.

Before buying a nose button, you can try putting a kisser button on your string where your nose should touch. Just a cheaper option.

I’m having trouble holding my bow still to where I can have enough time to take a shot. Like as soon as the pin come to where I want I punch the trigger and the groups suck I wouldn’t even call them groups. Can you help me?

I think my problem is that my draw length is too long. I can never really get the string on my nose. I think I need new strings so hopefully I will be able to find a guy/shop thatbwill actually take the time with me to set it up right this time.

If you string isn't hitting your nose 1 of two things is happening. Either A. You draw length is too short. B. You front bow arm is dropping increasing the distance between your anchor and grip, not allowing your string to touch your nose proper.

Josh, it sounds like you need to visit an archery shop where you can try shooting a bow that fits you and is at a poundage you can easily draw. Take the bow with you to see if it can be adjusted to match your current capabilities. Good luck.
