I am shooting a Vegas face 30 arrow game everyday before work, and as my start of the day on the weekends. It has occurred to me that from time to time i start "going through the motions".
I will have a couple good ends, then all of a sudden I have a rushed shot, or other breakdown.
my home shop area is heated just enough to keep things from freezing, then i open the door to my unheated garage where my Morrell outdoor range bag hangs. it is pretty cold at the moment, and i have to say that sometimes i am thinking about how cold it is instead of being fully in the shot (moment)
I will say that i have been a bit lazy in my practice as of late, until I started this 100 days of vegas face thing, and sure as can be ...my groups are shrinking a ragged hole is the norm....until I lose focus then boom a wild 9 or worse.
i am shooting these with improvement as my pay off. i was speaking to my wife about this and she suggested that i clear my mind before shooting, visualize several shots before picking up my bow. i did this and it id help. yesterday i said to her as i was walking to my shop " i am just going to try and make 30 perfect shots today".
her reply was AWESOME!!!!! she said i should "scrap that idea and just make 1 good shot.then start over" I feel this may be the best advice I ever got.
i may have mentioned in an earlier post that i am shooting the USAA AAAP program, i have not had to practice for tis up to this point, just show up once a month and shoot a 270 and i will get my pin. it was working well a pin every time. sometimes even if i didn't shoot for a month i still hit it pretty good. things are changing. a new year is upon us and it is time to walk how i talk, i don't accept not practicing from my JOAD students.....i should not accept it for myself either.
