Didn't you also mention in another thread that you are using an Art. Sinew string?
That extra stretch on that stuff might not be helping either...

Hmmm. Gonna have a lot of shooting ahead of me I guess! Lol. Guess ill stick to shooting at smaller things from now on. The string on this bow, I'm not sure what it is. Its a bow made by one of the sponsors here, the linen backed bow. It doesn't slap near as much as the art. Sinew does.

LOL okay, I have no pointers on shooting. I am not a good target shooter. Bought Become the Arrow...it's an okay book but not all that impressed and bought Shooting The Stickbow it is a good book but I think I might go ahead and get Asbel's book.
Good luck on reducing that arm slap. When I first started shooting a selfbow at 15 I didn't use an arm guard because I had read that good form eliminates it...Long story short, I spent a lot of painful lessons until I learned how to avoid it. I didn't start shooting again until last year,10 years later, and apparently I forgot those lessons and I'm not tough enough anymore to do it without protection ;)
