When someone points the bow tilted up when drawing the arrow then brings it down to the target as they complete the draw.

This is frowned upon in any range, since indoors it would destroy the ceiling and outdoors it would shoot off dangerously far in the event the shooter accidentally releases it. It would be considered a bad technique and usually occurs when a shooter is using a bow much stronger than they should be.

Sky drawing is commonly wrongly associated with the Japanese shooting technique where they draw back with a raised the bow and arrow before releasing. The key difference here is they keep the arrow parallel to the ground, whereas sky drawing has the arrow at a angle toward the sky.
