Talking It's a start anyway

Well I shot my first six gold end last night at the club, granted it was only at 40 yds, but for me thats an accomplishment, I only moved to the darkside in March, and after recently surviving a heart attack and heart surgery in May the only way now is upwards and onwards; the only downside is that before we know it the indoor season will be upon us drat 20yards ! well hopefully by next year I should be fighting fit for any distance. Regards John

Remember John, you pay £2.50 to shoot indoors so any outdoor shooting you do from October to April is FREEEEEEEE!! We'll get you out on good days shooting 100 yds so you'll shoot bowman scores early next year!!

Well done John! I can't remember the last time I shot a full bag - at any distance!

Hi Peter. In a word...... pants.

Been struggling and, frankly, I've not enjoyed my shooting for some time (although it has started to pick up from last week). I did get a four gold end at 80yds on Thursday though.

Shooting time has been a bit limited since my daughter arrived so that hasn't helped! But she's soooooo cute.....

After posting this achievement last week, I didn't think that I would have broken the 60 Yard mark so early, but am getting groups that are consistently tighter, and where I want them to be, and with more regularity, so persistence is paying off.Thanks Peter.
Regards
John

Well done John. Glad to hear you are enjoying shooting compound. As you say, "onwards and upwards."
