I'm having. Issues with keeping my bow level. Both my chill r & arena 30. When holding on target the bottom of the bow wants to twist left. Doesn't seem to effect my 20yrd groups much much but 30 & farther they tend migrate right. Would a back bar on the left side of the bow help this?
How tight are you gripping your bow. I know my son had the same problem, then I had him lighten his grip to where he was barley holding it. This worked for him. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Just curious, are you gripping the bow too tight? The reason I ask is that I shoot open handed. With doing this the bow always seem to stay pretty vertical.
The back bar won't help much after the shot. It is more of a help when drawing and aiming. But if your bow consistently wants to drift to one side. It sounds like a form issue. Or you have a dumbbell duct taped to the side of your bow.
Hopefully you have a level on your bow sight. If you do, correct the problem with form - twist your wrist a little to adjust. If you don't have a level on your sight, try and migrate towards one that does. Once you get the feel of what is actually level, your form will take over in just a few days. Good luck!
When you are drawing back are you by chance twisting your release hand or maybe your elbow is to low? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
This is the exact reason I shoot a side rod. I don't have to think about leveling the bow really and it takes little thought/effort. Most people will twist their wrist to level the Bow. That's not that big of a problem except it's easy to forget to do it during the moment of truth. I just prefer the bow to level more on its own rather than having to manipulate it. Most people who go to a back bar, will always use one Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yep! I also attch mine low on the bow to help keep the center of gravity low. You did however forget to mention that twisting the bow to correct for level can cause hand torque and create inconsistent groupings.
It can but not always. It's more about aiming because of having a naturally relaxed hand or arm versus manipulating your hand or arm to level the bow. I honestly have to REALLY screw up with my grip to change point of impact much. Now the release hand, that's where a little bit can make HUGE difference in impact but that's another conversation for a different day Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
That's pretty funny. I'm the opposite. I couldn't screw up my anchor or release if I tried(and I'm a proude trigger puncher). I could be a scratching my ear while I release and I'm fine. Hahaha. But holy heavens if I even have a fly land on my bow hand I will tourqe the crap out of it and my arrow will land a foot off my mark.
