This week I am a picture of what not to do.
Long day at work, exhausted from a run, kids finally in bed...
I sit down and chat with the mrs over a cold glass of some award winning micro brewed ale. 2.5 glasses later my wife reminds me I need to do the Fun shoot... I called it after all! Feeling not unlike a child first trying to ride his bike I jump up and grab my paper targets, bow and arrows. I run out and shoot, my wife laughing the whole way. The first four go great, a 28! I'm feeling on top of the world, then realize shes laughing behind me. I say "what?" she said, you shot all four from your knees, never moved, same spot, same position...
IT takes a second to click, but alas she is right. She being the responsible one of the two of us, holds me to my shooting spots. First two are fine, an 8 and 6. Then I back up turn my knees away and forget myself a bit and shot a 4 just outside the line. Pulling all my concentrative powers together, I shoot a six with the outside wall cutting and just inside the line.
Having called this shoot I was hoping for much better this week, it being in my wheelhouse and something I practice every day. But, given the circumstances I will bow for a 24.
Sorry for the crappy picture... we'll just say its a tad dark.
Thanks to all you who have participated, this has been alot of fun!
