Span and holding the bow
In most cases the string will be spanned with three fingers. The forefinger is the only finger which is over the arrow. The two other fingers are under the arrow. What you should do to get the best shoot is relax your hand. Just the three parts spanning the string should not be relaxed.
The next question I want to answer is what it means to anchor?.
As you surely know from shooting with a gun or a crossbow is that you focus on the target with notch and corn. So the corn is actually there but the notch?
So we should find another way to shoot efficient. So to shoot the best way is to put the hand, which span the string, at the same position in your face every shoot you take.
In most cases we can do this by putting the hand under your chin.
So while anchoring under your chin, you have to know when you are in the right position. You got the right Point when the string touches the middle of your chin.
The muscles of your shoulder and of your back are keyed up.
Your blade bones should be nearly together. The arm spanning the string has the same high as the arm holding the bow.
By the way most of the bow hunters stay in this position up to ten seconds. So if you have your bow in this position and you feel that you are definitely too week you have got the wrong bow
