I've been involved with archery for about 40 years, mostly Olympic style archery. Some of the women wear a breast protector, a piece of mesh fabric with straps that holds their boob out of the way of the string. Most women just mash the string into the side of the breast. Unless she has a very open stance (facing the shoulders towards the target instead of right angles), the string shouldn't catch her nipple at all.
Just as examples, in post #11, picture 3 the girl has a very open stance. The girl in the first picture in post #11 has a closed stance.
In my opinion, most of the archers shown in this thread are not really experienced shooters.
