Wednesday 22nd June 2011

Windy, sunny but cool

8x 6 arrow ends @ 50m, 122cm unscored
4x 6 arrow ends @ 40m, 122cm unscored

Total 120

Tried to shoot to check on my sight settings for this weekends upcoming State Short Course Championships being a FITA900.  The height of my groups were good when I had controlled releases and action, but with gusty winds supposedly ranging from 25km/hr  to 50km/hr it was a bit harder to pinpoint my left/right.  However there were some brief lulls in the wind at 40m that I was satisfied enough after four ends that I decided to get out of the wind.  I am currently having some problems keeping my bow shoulder down and this is the biggest struggle in windy conditions, as the hunching reduces expansion making it very difficult to hold stable and get through the clicker.
