Split for me I tried 3U but could never get comfortable with it.

I started shooting split years ago.  I switched to three under for awhile.  I was more consistently accurate.  But I didn't like the noise I got from the bow and I didn't feel like I could cant the bow either.  So I switched back to split.

The results are interesting.  Almost 50/50.

Depends on the day for me. I will switch back and forth all the time unfortunately. I feel 3 U is better when I want to "think" when I am shooting. When I want to whip up and nail something without a second thought I definitely prefer split finger.

I have tested and found I shoot higher 3D scores shooting 3U, but when it comes to shooting running rabbits I can really nail them shooting split finger.  

In the end I don't know? Enjoy the ride I guess... SS

I started with 3 under. Got new bow and was determined to learn split. Shoot split now. I like that the bow is quieter. I used to get frustrated about my release but I think I've got it now. I got a lot of help here

Split - I see the advantages of three under but it's not for me, I have tried

Every day is a great day.  Some are just better than others.

I agree with J. Holden. I started split and then after 10 yrs tried 3U. I was extremely acurrate but hated the extra noise that 3U created. I also struggled with 3U when canting the bow. If I was only target shooting, I'd stay with 3U...BUT, I'm a hunter and prefer the quicker & quieter results from shooting split. I tried Dan Toelke's method of shooting split am getting excellent results. His whip bows are INCREDIBLE too !

I voted 3 under because that's what I have been shooting since I switched to shooting southpaw. Funny thing though, I occasionally shoot right handed just so I don't forget how, and shoot split.

split for me. 3 under just feels weird.

I started experimenting with 3u and 2u about 3 yrs ago because of a crooked index finger causing nock pinch.

I can now shoot either way. I trained myself to position my fingers shooting split so that I dont pinch the nock

I vote Split because I feel more comfortable shooting split.
