more than men in tights…
The results are in for the Windsor @ Windsor. I was not dead last! My score was also adjusted as the person doing the scoring added it up wrong.
A small but confidence boosting step. No shooting tomorrow, but Friday, weather permitting and Saturday ditto.
That’s all for now…
The full results are in for the shoot yesterday. 
I came dead last 
I spoke the the organiser yesterday regarding the 2006 results. He wasn’t sure if he still had access to them, but they duly arrived this evening.
My score was 768, 108 hits with 40 golds. Which was good enough for second place on the day.
It was good enough for 1st place yesterday. Which is encouraging..sorta, except that I didn’t score it yesterday…but I will get back to that..I promise, both you and myself.
All it takes is practice, commitment and concentration.
Oh…and the love of a good woman…any offers? 
shot again tonight…this is becoming a habit 
The aim was to make progress with my clicker. Which I did. When I concentrated on it.
when concentrating
I was able to set the pile just on the edge of coming through the clicker, expand a little and then release.
Over time I was able to extend upon this success to…
Aim – actually aim, rather than somewhere on the boss is good enough, before expanding and releasing
Know when it wasn’t right and let down, relax, breathe and start again. Once upon a time I knew there was something wrong mainly because my release was awful, my right arm went out and up, the left arm did some sort of random waggle and the arrow went on a tour of the outer reaches of the face.
I found that over the evening it was gradually harder and harder to pull through, bits of me ached, primarily my left elbow and the middle of my back. As the ache increased, my shooting went further and further to pot so I called it a night with about a dozen to go.
Rather that than getting miserable and be in pain all day tomorrow.
I didn’t keep score, I’m not planning to keep score until my first (and currently only) competition of the season. Then I will score. Until then, I am training myself, to shoot with a clicker, to control the shot, to control the process and to shoot for the pleasure of it, not the pressure, either internal or external. I will gauge my progress by the result in 2 weeks.
Tonight has been a good night…shooting at least.
