Help with shooting new bow?

[PEARL DRUMS]

Bump your brace height a 1/2" to start with, then tweak from there.

You can keep on trying to sort chaff from wheat, or you can get a copy "Modern Methods in Archery," by Reichart and Keasey. It was written in the 1930s and is the best uncluttered book I know of about shooting a wooden bow like the ones we make.

The book is available used at Amazon for about $30. Keasey was a two-time national champion archer.

I never needed an arm guard when shooting FG recurves because brace heights are set greater.

I sure do now.

I find opening  my stance helps me. Left foot to the left a little bit for a righty.

Thanks again everyone!  A bit difficult to wrap my head around all the comments but I'm guessing it's some kind of combination.  I wasn't able to shoot after work today because of the weather(pouring rain in Buffalo,NY in February! Pretty strange!). But I was able play with my grip a bit and I definitely think that is part of my issue, along with not bending my elbow.  I'll give it a shot tomorrow or if my kids actually go to sleep at a reasonable time tonight I can shoot in the basement.  Thanks again.
