9. Nock/Draw/Anchor Point
A properly aligned a kisser button (anchor point) and peep sight.
A compound bow at full draw.
A properly nocked and rested arrow.

10. Stance
Standing with your side to the target, feet are shoulder width apart. The head is turned ¼ turn toward the target.

11. Nocking
Placement of the arrow in shooting position on the bowstring. Lay the arrow shaft on the arrow rest and place the nock in the bowstring at the serving. The cock feather is up. The arrow forms a 90* angle with the bow.

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.
