Sunday 23rd August 2009

@ Sefton

Afternoon, warm, shade.

2x 18 arrows (3x 6) @ 8m, 60cm gold spot.

1x 12 arrows @ 3m, blind.

Total 48 arrows.

Todays shooting was very light. I shot two sets of 18 on the spots aiming, had solid grouping though some releases were not that great, so at the end, I put in twelve shots shooting blind, concentrating on feeling and controlling the release. I stood sufficiently close to the target that having my eyes closed wasn't an issue for missing with my straight arm posture. While twelve doesn't seem to be a lot of arrows in the big picture, it was good to just gently re-control my release a little.

I didn't shoot a lot today because I was still a little stiff from Kendo and shooting yesterday and I have Kendo tomorrow.
