Georgia Hunter Education Course Practice Exam

The anchor point is the location on the hunter's face where the hand holding the string rests. This point helps ensure consistency in shooting as it allows the archer to draw the bow to the same position each time, resulting in more accurate shots. By anchoring at the same spot every time, the archer can maintain a consistent draw length and focus more on aiming, leading to better precision and shot placement.

Option A, the point where the arrow rests before being shot, is not the anchor point but rather the arrow nock point.

Option B, the point on the bowstring where the fingers are placed, refers to the nocking point on the string where the archer places their fingers to draw the bow.

Option D, the location on the ground where the hunter stands, is unrelated to the anchor point, which is a reference to the position of the hand on the archer's face.
