The Top 5 Compound Archery Techniques Every Archer Should Know

Are you new to compound archery and looking for ways to improve your skills? Or maybe you're an experienced archer looking for some new techniques to add to your arsenal. Either way, you've come to the right place. In this article, we'll be discussing the top 5 compound archery techniques that every archer should know.

Proper Grip and Stance

The first technique on our list is the importance of having a proper grip and stance. When holding your compound bow, you should have a relaxed grip with your fingers wrapped around the bow grip. Your hand should be positioned in a way that allows you to pull the bowstring straight back without any interference. Additionally, your feet should be shoulder-width apart with your weight evenly distributed.

Consistent Anchor Point

The second technique on our list is achieving a consistent anchor point. The anchor point is where you draw the bowstring back to before releasing the arrow. It's important to find a consistent anchor point, usually on your cheek or jawbone, to ensure consistent shots. This will take some practice to find the anchor point that works best for you.

Proper Aiming

The third technique on our list is proper aiming. To aim your compound bow, you'll want to use the bow's sight system to line up the bowstring, peep sight, and target. You should aim for the center of the target, but it's important to remember that aiming is not the same as looking. You should aim with your dominant eye, but focus on the target with both eyes open.

Controlled Release

The fourth technique on our list is a controlled release. When releasing the bowstring, you should focus on a smooth, controlled release. Don't jerk or flinch, but rather let the bowstring slip through your fingers. This will help to reduce any torque or movement that could affect the trajectory of the arrow.
