Middle three under. This post would have made a nice "poll"

Mr. fingers

Split finger. I anchor with my middle finger on  my upper canine tooth. It is bone and cannot move not like the soft tissue at the corner of the mouth that can move or,stretch. I also touch my cheek bone to my third knuckle of my index finger and my first thumb knuckle on the corner of my jaw.

I had never locked behind my jawbone. Tried it tonight and seemed to work good. it felt very natural.

Index finger, shooting split....guess I'm the odd ball on this one.

Here is a real odd ball one for ya. I anchor with my thumb knuckle in the corner of my mouth and my index finger on the tip of my nose.  3 under. no weight on the top finger at full draw. (screwy right?? Works for me though. ...

I'm with you Arctic Hunter.  I shoot split, Index in corner of mouth. Thumb gets anchored under jaw.

It works for me when I can keep my head in the game.

Michael, I have a hard time picturing that anchor.  But at least its working for you, thats all that matters.
Relax,

You'll live longer!
