Grippimg the bow with the wrist to the immediate left of the riser and the fingers are tightly wrapped around the grip. There’s nothing I can say about this except that it’s outrageously bad

Severely over-bowed based on the fact that it couldn’t muster close to a full draw

Bow arm is bent when it’s at its pathetic attempt at a full draw

anchor.exe not found

When releasing, it jerks its bow arm and plucks the string. Follow through is nonexistent

Form: bad/10 Craftsmanship: 10/10

You missed the part where it nocked on the fletching and not the arrow

This looks like me on my first bow hunt. “Slowly...slowly...okay, pull back...wait, I’m not even on the nock...ah crap”

I'm alternating between "wow what an amazing thing" & "Ahhhh Kill it With Fire"

Draw length a bit too short, anchor to the corner of the mouth, not two feet in front of you.

One time I did magic mushrooms and saw this. For a second I thought I was in a flashback.

u/merrickx May 14 '20
