The anchor is the final position of the drawing hand on the archer’s face. An anchor point should be consistent, stable, and easy to repeat in order to allow a consistent shot, a consistent draw length, and consistent bow alignment.

Only a shot that is repeated in the same way every time allows predictable corrections and adjustments to technique.

Different anchor points are possible, as long as they are repeatable and comfortable for the archer.
