bow hunting from standDrawing the Arrow

For those who use a release aid, the release is normally applied on the string below the arrow and the string is drawn back, again to a consistent anchor point. It is normally drawn back with the first three fingers of the right hand. The nock should be between the index finger and middle finger. Draw the string back until the index finger on the right hand is "anchored." The same anchor point is used each time you draw the bow. Using different anchor points will result in poor shooting.
