yes tilting the bow will generally induce error but NOT as illustrated; if the bow is tilted to the left it moves the sight to the left but the arrow moves to a much less degree, and since the shooter is still going to align the sight pin with the bullseye he will actually be moving the arrow so as to shoot right of the target
Lost if help thank you both .i used to shoot every weekend put as i got older i just put my bows up But now i have grandchildren and there always asking me papa teach us how to dhoot your bows .but like i said its been years and i need to be able to teach them the rite way .myself i was self tought and for along time very good but my style of shooting may not be the best for them so thanks for the tips greatly appreciated .
After taking a video of me drawing to my natural anchor, I noticed my fingers were so far back (halfway between chin and ear) and the string was touching the tip of my nose and the way end of my lip. I understand theres no right or wrong anchor point, but is it possible I'm drawing the bow too far back? Also, the video says you should align the string to a consistent point, but when I'm focused on my target, the string is always to the way left of my vision, but it's still aligned straight with the target. Could this be because since my string is so far back, I can't align it correctly? I use a 62 inch recurve takedown, only equipment I use is an armguard and a three finger leather glove (for string protection).
Great vid. Need your help. After the anchor, if my sight is slightly below the target, how do I raise the bow to align it? Do I lift the bow with my arms or tilt from my waist? Thanks guys..
What if the anchor point is consistent with the same area of the chin but there is no or barely any connection with string to nose.I have had target panic for the last two years and though I can draw to my chin and hold, the strong is literally mms away from my nose. I'm trying to use a clicker but it exhausts me to the point of where I get tired and sore and my aim and release is further affected
Get a longer bow (longer limbs, longer riser or both) to improve string angle on your face. More definite face contact might help with the TP. Then get off the clicker for a little while and focus on shot timing at blank bale, with a metronome to help. Find a coach, preferably one who has been a good archer too. There are some things coaches don't know and can't help with unless they've experienced them too, although they'll tell you otherwise.
The UA-cam video "The Push" goes quite deep into different ways of anchoring and sighting with a trad bow. I highly recommend it. But answering the question. If you shoot instinctively, you don't allign. If you gap shoot or string walk, you need to use a 2 or 3 point anchor where one of the mentioned points is the string touching the side of your nose so you can see it while you aim with the arrow tip. You will often see gap shooters and string walkers putting a plaster or a tape on the side of their nose so the string won't graze it.
How do you stop the bow moving when the bow is drawn ??? is it down to muscle tone in your shoulder or the arm to the shoulder when i pull back my string to fire ?? the bow moves i try to fix it straight arm to my shoulder when i look through the sight pin to line with gold my arm is at 1 o clock position and my arm moves i can't hold it steady can you please help me with this problem its frustrating me
You are correct. Gap shooting (and barebow shooting of many kinds) tend to anchor higher because it shortens the distance between the arrow and the eye. You CAN gap shoot with this anchor point, but it's going to be harder than it needs to be.
At our club we have a trad gap shooter that uses exactly this anchor point with pretty good results. However most string walkers and gap shooters will indeed use a more typical trad anchor on the face instead of under the chin.
corner of your lip, under your eye. stay there and you wont scew up by changing your anchor point all the time. remeber.. accuracy is obtained by duplicating accurate shots.
these videos deserve more attention. the production quality is stellar.
Very well said
great video straight to the point and clear
And crispin duenas! It's like "the rock" of Archery.
holy shit, the only video that helped me. Thank you so much

Are you shooting olympic recurve?
Thanks tip and after on I will ask Korean archery 🏹 to improve my techniques and basic to shoot. My favorite is Ki Bo Be and Choi Misul

Sounds like you need to drop poundage

for me it is harf to touch my jaw line with my drawing hands. if i touch the jaw line, the string cannot touch the tip of my nose. please help
Nice tutorial video..Awesome..
can someone explain string alignment??? I can never get my string to move from the left of the pin sight
Duenas & Folkard for the win! Nice video. Just a question: which is the soundtrack name? it is very inspiring!
for the soundtrack I think it is - Tim McMorris Entwined
Great! Thank you very much!
The arrow will fly left or right regardless if your bow isn't center cut.
Fokerts! I know her from watching Archery TV!
Been shooting regularly for a couple months now. Still haven't found a solid ancor point yet
Try the corner of your mouth with the middle knuckle of your index finger
what if don't have a sight on my bow? then how do i align?

I'm not an expert on how to shoot steady but i'm sure they're are many tutorials on youtube.
thank you so much!
Can someone help me with anchor point in takedown long bow
It works with olympic style archery, when you use sights. With gap shooting shooting not so much.
You are correct. Gap shooting (and barebow shooting of many kinds) tend to anchor higher because it shortens the distance between the arrow and the eye. You CAN gap shoot with this anchor point, but it's going to be harder than it needs to be.
There is no reason why you can't use this for bare bow.
At our club we have a trad gap shooter that uses exactly this anchor point with pretty good results. However most string walkers and gap shooters will indeed use a more typical trad anchor on the face instead of under the chin.
Same with slingshot, both need anchor point. Good to know.
thank you. 😍
Arm and shoulder alignment is far more important than face position for the anchor point
hi, is it okay to edit and translate to turkish for my archery club ?
corner of your lip, under your eye. stay there and you wont scew up by changing your anchor point all the time.
remeber.. accuracy is obtained by duplicating accurate shots.
When i draw bow it move left and right what can I do
Aaaahh I can never find the same place on my face
Sir my bow string touches bow hand when release why and give me solution
Try to turn your elbow outwards.
We'll explained 'Kwispin'
Target shoots are different than hunters
I’m having major problems trying to find my damn anchor point
With the best of intentions it seems to find my thumb line arhhhhhhhhh
comfort is one people overlook... I'f your comfortable and always use that anchor, its just a matter of time before accuracy becomes consistant
😮😮😮😮😮👍👍👍
Just shoot it over 1,000 times and try to be accurate. You’ll figure it out
Cool
I like archer game i love archer game
...Should be renamed "Why to find a recurve anchor point".
