| Application for the 1st Outdoor Fonz of 2006
I'd like to submit my application for the 1st award of the 2006 outdoor season.
Yesterday evening, first (long anticipated) outdoor session of the year, and shooting alongside Grant Womack who had popped along to out field for a change of scenery.
Freezing cold and blowing a hoolie. After just 2 ends and whilst concentrating really hard on beating the wind, I loose a perfect shot and, BANG, bow takes on a most unusual shape, pieces of string flap about in the wind, and I rush to change my underwear.
Like a complete knob I'd been so focussed on the wind I'd forgotten to nock an arrow.
The string parted somewhere about the peep sight and, but for the cables holding it all together, I'd still be picking up the pieces. Never saw the peep again though.
Embarrassment aside, what really annoys me is that my favourite bow is out of commission until I get a new string (and cable set, to be on the safe side) made and installed, and it was all my own fault!
Bugger!
