To solve your problem......dont hold.
Never stop pulling. Rod Jenkins and I both do the same thing ...i just do it faster than he does.
An anchor point is not a destination...it's an evolution to execution.
so terry when your at anchor just keep pulling?
Yes but my elbow is not just going straight back it's coming around behind my head very slowly so even though I'm still pulling it's around and not back so my draw length is not ever-increasing the entire time
how do i make my elbow come around instead of straight back?

You can practice this without a bow. Just pretend you are drawing a bow and with right hand at anchor rotate the elbow back. You can feel it even without the bow.
You can also use a surgical tube tied in a loop to work on this.
nhbuck once you get to anchor point, many / most still have their elbow pointing out. Stay on anchor and tighten the back. THIS is where the back tension everybody talks about comes very much into play. Pull those shoulder blades together and get that elbow back behind your arm ( in a line). Do it with no bow and feel everything move.
