    Canting your bow

    Ok, I have a recurring issue with canting my bow to the right. I cannot seem to draw in a manner where the bow naturally comes up aligned and must consciously look at the bubble to correct it everytime. If I don't, my BHs will always impact to the right although it doesn't seem to affect my FPs as much.
    Any tips or tricks to resolve this issue? Maybe change the shape of the grip slightly?

    haveing the issue my self for whatever reason at 20 yards my bubble rolls left and i shoot a little left as well but if i shoot farther like 25 yards pluse the bubble lines up perfectly in the middle and arrows land on target..

    i guess its easier for me to keep the bow steady when holding it a littlew higher up for a longer range target i keep my hand open and and keep pressure on my palm when at full draw, try to fire after holding bow for no longer than 10 seconds.

      Make sure your knuckles are at approx 45 degrees while holding the bow. Dont open the hand stiff, keep the muscles relaxed with the life line in your palm running down the left side of grip (if right handed)
      Hope this helps

        find someone who can give you lessons, $40 -$60 for a hours worth of lessons is small compared to the overall cost of hunting and it will last a lifetime. There is also a book Core archery from a guy named Larry Wise, it is a fast read cost me $7 from ebay.

          Pratice, pratice, pratice! The bow is to be held following your life line on most hands. The bow in the hand should land up almost even between the two bones in the wrist, or the middle of the wrist. Look at the bubble, get your bow level and shoot, and pratice each time this way, and it will become second nature to you. Try your hand at shooting on hills, up and down, and when one foot is lower or higher than the other.
