I love how you are honest about your shots. Most would probably only show the perfect shots, so it’s really nice to see somebody being honest. You have really improved your groups since last video! I can’t wait to see you improve even more in this series!
It’s better to pick one thing to work on getting it right/better. I would suggest you get that release ( or another one on an adjustable strap) shortened up to be able to hook your finger over the trigger to the inside joint. Then not moving the finger pull backwards like you are moving the elbow to an imaginary wall. Getting a release set up correctly is probably the most important thing for a new archer. Seriously, check out “ bow only outdoors “ and see his learning vid on setting up and using a tigger. There is a video of him and friends at a Total Archery Challenge event where you can watch him using a trigger. You should lower your draw weight so you can learn to draw with a higher elbow position. Drawing with the elbow drawn level or at a downward angle shows you’re drawing too much and it creates wasted time and movement. Just keep at it. It’s kinda slow to get just a few very important basics down. GOOD LUCK 👍👍👍👀
Don't grab the bow grip after the shot. Just let the bow tip forward naturally. Also, turn your grip hand knuckles out 45 degrees from the first knuckle. You're also punching the trigger. Wrap your finger around the trigger gently onto the middle pad of your finger and then use your right shoulder to pull your whole arm into the trigger. Shorten your release a 1/4" if you have to.
@@therealTMoutdoors Shooting a compound bow is a push-pull action. With your bow arm, you're pushing the pin to the target and letting it float on the point of aim. After you've drawn back your bow to anchor, you're going to gently wrap your trigger finger around the trigger with the slightest pressure. You're going to pull straight back on your release arm with your back muscles and your trigger finger correctly curled around the trigger. Make sure you have a wrist sling (nice and loose) so your bow doesn't jump out of your hand, even though you'll have your index finger gently curled onto the grip.
You've got some good shooting going on. What's the draw weight on the bow? When the arrows are showing in the bag at the 4:44ish mark, I've had arrows do that if at the break of the release my hand shifts up suddenly enough to throw the arrow in such a manner. Over all good shooting and good advice from previous commenters. Best advice I can give is have fun with it, shoot often. Don't get frustrated with yourself, it'll only make the experience harder. Rest between arrows so you don't over fatigue yourself. If you were feeling spicy, maybe a back bar mount and side bar if you were having issues with the bubble wanting to lean to the right. For your grip, try leaving your top two fingers on the bow and two relaxed off the riser. My rip that gives me less consistent torque is trigger ginger and thumb with my three other fingers relaxed on my palm. Wish I could show a photo. Sorry for the long response.
@TylerMeadowsODTV you're shooting pretty darn good sir. Don't get discouraged, take the small wins with the big ones. Archery is an incredible therapy for me. I hope it helps you in the long run as well. It takes just as much time to laugh at an amiss arrow as it does to get frustrated with it. There are so many more variables shooting a bow than shooting a xbow or a rifle. For me, this is apart of the fun and journey in archery. Sweet rig you have as well

Appreciate the advice I’m definitely starting to improve(mostly thanks to the comments)
