full draw faces
I'd love to do a book about the faces people make when at full draw, but it got me wondering, apart from facial/body differences, what positive/negative effects do certain anchors have? From pursed lips to puckered ones to blank expressions. Thanks to Dean Alberga of Dutchtarget for the photos.

For example:

Yes, very hard to concentrate on shooting too, as I got the distinct impression that my slice was being eyed up as second helpings. I was sure my slice also had a truffle on top which mysteriously disappeared. Flipping truffle fairy's

Enough to make anyone develop a nervously twitching nose

I'm told I don't really make a face when I shoot, but that I always look really PO'd when I come off the line.

Au contraire Leigh, you have a serene - nay almost regal look as you retire gracefully from the shooting line.

What I look like I have no idea but I know what I feel like inside sometimes
