Mr Flinger
You carry on as usual.
Pride is only there to be pricked and remind us that we're all fallible.
I shoot field and at this time of the year there are not many field shoots on so I've started doing a bit of indoor target with my log bow.
Having set my trusty rubber band to twenty yards and being ever so ever so careful not to move it I went to a local club to shoot a Worcester last week.
Sighters, draw up, align band,loose, watch arrow drop gracefully two feet under target.
Thought to myself "Golly,What a frightful nuisance" or something similar "Must have moved the rubber band"
So I adjusted said band and got one arrow out of five onto the target.
It was only after I had shot another four arrows that I realised that I was using my field anchor(side of mouth) instead of target style(under chin). DOH!!!
Please feel free to comment, ridicule, make mock or whatever.
On the plus side I'll not do that again,I'll probably find something else to #### up.
