12. Draw Turn the bow perpendicular to the ground. Using a three finger grip and the tips of the fingers; pull the bowstring to an anchor point on the face or head.

13. Anchor Point Placement of the draw hand at the cheek bone, the jaw bone, temple or some other comfortable spot on the face or head. Once the anchor point is established, do not change it, use it for every shot. This will add consistency to your shots.

14. Release and Follow Through Following a motionless second at the anchor point, relax the fingers on the bowstring, allowing the string to roll off the fingertips. Fingers remain at the anchor point as the arrow flies to the target. Remain motionless until the arrow has come to rest in the target.
