What ever feels good to you. I shoot with the string in the first bend but not too far back, if this makes since to you.

Thanks Big Dave, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't developing a bad habbit. I pretty much shoot the way you do and find it to be pretty comfortable.
thank you,
Kind regards- Jim
