RE: First Competition

I think we've been shooting about 10-12 weeks (most days), we have learnt a lot by default and realising the finer points when joining the club and also going to Lez & Neil at Custom Archery and Leather. The club members are very supportive and have encouraged us to shoot alongside them on the 60 yard line, this was where I found I was struggling to see the target and had to swap my sight to the inside. I was on 26lb limbs which have now been exchanged for 30lb limbs so that should make a huge difference. I guess the key to it all is to go at a pace you are happy with and to set yourself realistic goals, Guy and I are very competitive and always have been at whatever we have been doing. I previously entered a martial arts competition after only 4 weeks training so whilst I will be nervous on the day, am I really looking forward to the experience.
