Woodely:
What is one the most significant shooting conundrums that you have overcome that have vastly improved your accuracy.

For me it was using a deep hook on the string,  before that I was releasing to early and torquing the string.

Pat B:
For me it was short drawing. I shoot quickly, as soon as I hit anchor I release. When I find I'm short drawing I will hold at full draw for a second or 2. This sets me back on the right path.

Pat, a friend , Harry Angle an archer, was up Monday and we were discussing that "very same topic". He said something to me that worked all afternoon. "Dick, draw, anchor, release and damn it, the shot is NOT finished till the arrow hits the target." It worked as I was dropping my left hand. Funny how that works.  ;D

Pat B:
Dick, it's the same with pistol and long gun shooting, isn't it? It's all part of the process.

DC:
My accuracy improved a whole bunch a while back and the only thing I can think I did was to change from 3 finger split to 2 finger split. I doesn't seem like a change that would make a big difference but I'll take it. ;D
