| I've only done that at 20 yards so far, and I felt like curling up with embarrassment.  I don't think I'd have survived a 90m walk back. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| I did! My first ever Fita (last year). Dropped it at the boss end and didn't realise 'til I was back at the line - did a little dance whilst trying to decide if I had time to get a spare from my bag, and ended up shooting bare fingered.....not my best end!

| I've done it quite a few times while practising, but never at a tournament. If i did leave my tab at the target during a tournament, i would probably get my spare one from my case. Chris

| Not so easy when you're on traffic lights and you only miss the tab when you go to pull it from your belt on the line!

| Thank you - that advice has been given since the incident, along with don't keep your puller and your tab in the same pouch....

| I heard of a competition where Pete Garner left his release aid more than once at the target - he didn't admit to it in the end!!! I keep mine in my pouch, I used to leave it on my bow but then I got to thinking what would I do if it went missing?!!!!

| Answer: take the spare out of your quiver & use that instead - you do have a shot in & identically set up spare don't you? (I do after having this demonstrated to me on a coaching day  )
