It was damp on Saturday, but not too bad. The change was dramatic though. I shot 14 targets very well (for me anyway). I stopped to get something to eat and about 30 minutes later started again. I immediately started shooting low (in the 1 ring on GNAS field targets). It didn't occur to me to check the bow. I thought I was just tired and dropping my bow arm or something

But if the serving was quite tight I suppose the string could just 'ping' at somepoint and end up a bit longer. Perhaps the damp drizzly conditions contributed to that.

Anyway I'm getting a second string to shoot in at practice sessions, so I have a backup.

I did work out that my 30 yr old Geometry was wrong and I'd forgotten to multiply by 2 at the end. So it is about 5mm that pinged...
