Back at it in time for turkey season.
This season I'm going to focus on headshots for turkey. After losing a bird last season with a body shot and never recovered. Should rehab going well, feeling strong to shoot my 53# longbow with POC wood shafts,total weight 664 gr.

Nice shootin Kris!
Anchor point
I changed my anchor point to try to get more consistent. It seems to be working much better although I only modified it slightly. The change has really helped. It’s not ingrained so if I’m not concentrating on my shot, I fall back to my original anchor. I know that’s not supposed to happen but I shoot as a stress relief every now and then. I just let’em fly. Lol This is only 12 yards.

Very nice. I played with my anchor a few weeks back. I was running middle finger in the corner of my mouth and thumb on jaw line under my ear. Then for giggles I started using ring finger in the corner of my mouth and my pointer finger on the cheek bone under my eye and was surprised at how much more accurate/consistent it was, so I changed. I still catch myself trying to revert back occasionally.
Release work
Spent some time just working on my release this evening with my new Striker Long bow.

Shooting the new arrows
Never thought my wife would let me post her on the internet, but she liked the arrows so much she agreed!

Heck yeah!
Finished product
Decided to go with 5 inch feathers since these dont want to stay perfectly straight. I do like the look of the 5 inch but I dont normally go more than 4 max.

There’s nothing so satisfying as the soft twang of the string and the hearty thump of a well placed arrow. Longbows Forever! 🏹
