| Oh my gawd!! Just got back from archery today and this has been really the first time I've shot outside with my LB (last one exploded on arrow no9, see previous thread). I'm in shock. I must've put up well over a hundred arrows and I must have hit the target about five times, how bad is that?? Only two people shot outside, possible the two nutters, one holding a longbow. There was a 20mph+ cross wind but even so......... it's no excuse. I need to find a fellow longbower I reckon, to get some advice...err coaching, the one thing I did notice though I was using a 70lbs LB and shooting at 70 metres and my technique went from standing still to throwing forward very quickly (don't know the technical term) but it felt very comfortable and if not getting the results I was at least, scare-ing the boss. It's dawned on me how far I yet have to go. pah...Portsmouth rounds! Got to get there quick as I'm just about to enter A 70mtr shoot at Pontiets, if nothing else I may provide the entertainment for the day. |
