   Do I remember you saying your missing some fingers?
Is that on your bow hand or your drawing hand?

	Walk quietly, but carry a big stick.

	Draw hand. They've been gone for years so the two I have are rather strong

	Would be interesting to see how that impacts on your release. With compound bows, I’ve been considering changing my competition shooting “style” from unlimited (using a mechanical thumb release) to limited, which is shooting with fingers. The smoothest release with fingers is to draw “normally”, how ever your normal is, then when u r at full draw slip one finger off the string, (holding with two), then slip another finger off the string so only holding with one, whilst aiming the whole time, then release with last finger. Obviously with practice the whole process can be performed quite smoothly and quickly.
