Wondering if anyone shoots using a fixed crawl method for aiming and mainly will cant have a lot of effect on arrow impact with this method?
 
Fixed crawl, like all stringwalking pretty much necessitates a vertical bow position.

But if one can make it work it is an effective aiming method. The only thing that dissuaded me from pursuing it futher was the noise. I could never make the bow as quiet as when shooting three under, let alone split fingered. But as always, ymmv.
 
I have tried it, but I have been shooting split finger and a canted bow so long that any attempts to go to 3 under using any technique just feels off and I cant seem to overcome it.
 
@always89y how much do you cant - past 2 o'clock. How does canting seem to affect how you tune, as in nock point height, etc.
2 o'clock would be my max, but it varies. Nock point is typically 1/8 inch above center-ish, depending on shelf cut and material. For me, its important to have the arrow as close to my hand as possible, a radius cut shelf that is cut at or past center
