After a five week break and a new cordovan tab face… everything (mostly me!) was slightly out of sync. But at the end of today’s session things were improving… slowly. #Archery #RecurveArcher #ArcheryGB
3rd archery comp today. Another county championship - Leicestershire & Rutland. Awful score. As we were from out of county we were classed as visitors. My daughter won gold in the Ladies. I got 2nd in the gents. 50+. No medal. There was only 2 of us 😂… that’s it now for me as far as indoor competitions go. Going back to basics & focus purely on technique. Got to say I really enjoyed competing. Met some lovely people too. #Archer #RecurveArcher #ArcheryGB #ArcheryCompetition
So… competed again today. After Fridays disappointment I wasn’t expecting much. I did improve slightly and didn’t come last! Bonus. I did figure out a couple of things that I can work on. What I didn’t know (my daughter organised everything) was that it was the Nottinghamshire County Championship. Best news was my daughter won the ladies recurve. She’s an indoor county champion! #Archery #RecurveArchery #ArcheryGB #Archer #RecurveArcher #Competition
Couldn’t shoot for shit tonight. My 2nd lowest score for a #Portsmouth. I’m competing on Sunday. Doesn’t bode well… #Archery #ArcheryGB #RecurveArchery #RecurveArcher
So, having struggled with sizing with my Fivics and then AAE Cavalier tabs I decided to get this in XL so I could butcher (cut/transform/glue) it to find the perfect dimensions. Only £12.50 so well worth a punt. #Archer #Archery #RecurveArcher #ArcheryGB

Oh, the frustration of #Archery - shoot a #PB, them compete in a status event and drop 70 points (yeah, I know!) then back to the club for another PB. Made a small adjustment to the knocking point… worked wonders.

2 more scores like this and it’s IB3 for me!

Shot my first archery comp today. A record status Portsmouth with Sherwood Archers. My lowest score ever for this round but I wasn’t last! To top off an excellent (if nerve wracking at the start) day my daughter took the bronze in the women’s recurve. #ProudDad #Archery #RecurveArchery #ArcheryGB #ArcheryCompetition
Super proud of my daughter who’s taking part in this… #archery #recurvearchery #RecurveArcher #ArcheryGB #IndoorChampionships
It was cold in the hall today and wasn’t feeling it. But 480 was very, very acceptable. No blacks. Now to eliminate some of those blues! Once again end 5 let me down 🤷‍♂️ #RecurveArcher #RecurveArchery #Archery #ArcheryGB #PortsmouthRound
Good session shooting tonight. New #PB of 481. Need to eliminate those blues’n’blacks! And shoot more often… #RecurveArcher #RecurveArchery #Archery #ArcheryGB #PortsmouthRound
