The key to being accurate with a bow is consistency. It's just like a golf swing. You have to do the same thing every time, because everything you do impacts the result. Your grip, your strain, the bend in your elbow, torque in your wrist, follow through, eyes open or closed, trigger pull, anchor point, foot placement, etc. Pick an anchor point, and make it the same every time. I put my thumb against my jaw, and string against the tip of my nose. Find a spot in your hand that you are comfortable, and stick with it. Same thing with the bend in your elbow, etc. Focus on these things, and practice practice practice. Worry about doing the same things every time, not about hitting your arm. If you do it enough, it becomes second nature. Then you can start to do it without thinking.

You may be putting too much of your palm on the grip as well. Doing so rolls your arm in towards the string.

Shoot with your elbow out, not elbow down. It won't ever happen again.
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14
