Tell yourself"that was a good shot,that is how I shoot" but say nothing when you put a bad shot in. It's so easy to be negative but harder to be positive, usually you say to yourself "that was a lucky shot!" Lucky!! bo£%cks, you were aiming for it, you set the shot up to hit it, you hit the gold, it was an excellent shot!

I agree entirely, lucky shots don't exist (see signature below). I have to say though B E that 'lucky bo£%cks' sounds like an interesting concept!!!!!!!!!!!
