I see that the anchor point around the lips seem to be very common. Almost all of the bows that I see people use have a prominently cut out arrow shelf, or even a totally center cut arrow shelf.
However, I have been watching some videos and looking at pictures of people shooting "primitive/historical" traditional bows (longbows, recurves, etc) without arrow shelfs (or with minimal arrow shelfs), and they basically never anchor at the lips. These people (shooting 3 finger Mediterrean, Slavic, Asiatic thumb draw) always seem to anchor around the corner of the jaw, below the jaw, below the ear, or even past the ear.
I've watched videos where people say your anchor point in 3 finger Mediterranean draw should be the point around your head where you can line up the arrow to the target...so wouldn't this be affected by the center cut shelf since it's a perfectly center cut shelf allows a much wider variety of anchor points that can line up the arrow?
