I'm thinking I'm a little short? Everything feels bunched up. Thoughts?

I don't know, all I see is a face and some string with an arrow on it.

My tv took some damage when I snapped the pic.

Doesn't look like the corner of the mouth to me. Too long based on the pic.

Using your peep for a kisser button ?

That's called borrowing someone else's bow (that has a longer draw than you)

Not sure we can tell from the pic....maybe it's the camera angle, but it looks like you might not be looking thru the peep? If your form is good (e.g. looking thru the peep, bow arm fully extended, etc.) then the DL looks between 1" and 1.5" too long. The nock should be at the corner of your mouth, and in the photo it is clearly much further back. Any chance you can get a pic that shows your bow arm too?

people think you're suppose to look through your peep, little do they know it's a kisser button for your ear. Looks like you need longer modules.

I appreciate the opinions but no way I'm long. I feel bunched up like I'm in a phone booth.

It looks long to me also. Maybe you are bunched up, and if you stretched out everything would be in line. Like others have said, we need to see a full view picture.

Bowfreak, you need to get a peep with the proper eye relieve. An inch to an inch and a half would be better for you and would allow you to stretch out more. I also have a hula hoop I can send you to use as your sight housing if you need one. Good luck!

Thanks Brotsky. If I were you I would keep following this thread. You might pick up some pointers. :)

Is that Nick Mundt? If so T Bone needs to tell him that him and Michael got their bows mixed up.

Nope just fine, that's the "shoulder anchor".....next level archery.

The frightening thing is that some have taken this question seriously.

I would move your fletching forward and increase the draw length until the nock touches your ear. The speed gain will be tremendous!

If nothing else, if you get tired holding, just hook the string around the back of your head.

Looks similar to mine, I'd say it's about right ;^)

Careful to not turn your head a little or you could rip off your nose, then you will really feel bunched up.
