I want to improve my form. I'd like to buy/borrow/watch videos that focus on shot form as opposed to aiming systems.
I'm mostly concerned w/ achieving proper drawing form (back tension, steady bow arm, draw arm alignment, release hand placement, elbow, etc).
I am seeing titles like "Hit em Like Howard", "Masters of Barebow", "G. Fred. Vids"
Which ones do you recommend for my purposes of achieving better drawing form/shooting form (as opposed to just aiming systems)
As always...many, many thanks!

I bought Masters of the Barebow 3 and found it very informative. I would recommend taking a look at it.
You may have already checked them out, but there are several good form videos available here on Tradgang under "Member Videos." I've been able to video myself and compare my form to guys like Charlie Lamb and Terry Green - makes it easy for me to see what I'm doing wrong!

Another thing you might look is get a formaster training aid,Rod talked about it in Masters of the Barebow.Might work better then watching videos.
Masters of the bare bow 1, 2, and 3. A lot of good info on form, and aiming. Also many other things about bow set-up and arrow preferences. Also MOBB 2 has a good section on arrow tuning.
No need to buy if you dont want i taught myself how to shoot from these

even though i have my own style of shooting all the fundamentals are from there.
Masters of the Barebow 1 2 3 are worth a watch though, lots of good info in there.
Guys,
This is great information. I appreciate all the leads.
Thanks for taking the time to help me out!

We've had favorable feedback of the effectiveness of our dvd, THE ACCURACY FACTORY. Another choice for your consideration.

The Shooters Forum here on Tradgang is another great resource, especially the "Member Form Improvement Videos" link.
