I've been working on my form the last 2 or so months, and trying to shoot consistently with back tension. I had a tendency to short draw sometimes, mainly when I got a bit tired. Changed my anchor point from index finger behind the eye tooth, to the corner of the jaw, and the thumb knuckle behind the jaw. Shooting a lot more consistently now, especially up and down. Getting better alignment, using back tension, and stopped the short drawing.
The bonus is 29.75" draw length, just a bit over 1" increase. The only problem is that I had to retune all the arrows for the different bows. At least they were long enough to play with. Cut some down, and others I went lighter up front.
You would'nt think that 3# or so increase, would make much difference, but you could feel it especially on the heaviest bow.
Still working on everything, but it seems to be working. Life's good
Cheers Dan

Re: 1" draw length increase
Nice mate, I snug my index finger into the corner of my mouth too. Darryl reek showed me the technique and i haven't changed since.
Perpetual Curiosity.
Re: 1" draw length increase
I have extended my draw length as well by working on form and are slowly improving.
