5 Nations, Sunday

Again too late to the competition place, and no warmup shooting.... But, the good news was that they changed the groups so, that I was in the group where was only one recurve shooter and one barebow shooter... And I started with the 5m bunny :)). So much better feeling in the start, and much better score also... First six targets 90, and the second 89, they were all unknown targets, beside the first 5m.. Also the bow worked better in the second day, than in the first?!? Second part was the tuffies course the I have ever shot... But very good practice, now I know which marks to shoot tuff up- and down hills :). So, next six targets 82. And in the end I was little tired (have to workout). Last six were not so good 77... But veeeery happy to the second day score, in that course. Have to tune my bow, cause in 20-25 meter the arrows are going in four left, some reason...
Results 312 and 338, not bad 650..

5 Nations, Saturday

I arriwed late to the competition place, and did not had chance to warm up.. They stopped the warmup shooting 9.30. I was in group where was 2 compound and 1 recurve shooter, so we had three shooting groups. Also we were the 12 bis group, so there was LOTS of waiting.. The start was like one target and then 20min waiting, one target and 20min waiting... after 5-6targets I got better feeling to the shooting, and were warm enough... So first 6 targets 77 and the next 87... The second half was also lots of waiting and when the long distancies came, I was really angry, and just wanted to go to hotel... so no good shooting there also... 77 and to the end 71 points only :(((

Rumst

Just been shooting in Rums, nothing special... Waiting for the weekends competition

237 arrows

It was little difficult to find motivation to todays shooting... In 50m there was 122cm target, so I started to shoot that. After while I shooted 2*36 arrows "competition", results 329 and 330. Then just shooting the field targets. I invented a "game" for me, maybe someone is allready using it, but anyway..... I had 8 arrows... I started to shoot the shortist distance to 80cm, 30m. If I got the first arrow to the yellow I moved 5m back, if not, had to shoot again, untill got yellow. Then 35m if yellow, 5m more...so on... Also I did it with a 60cm target (starting from 15m) and 40cm target (starting from 10m). That was nice and I was motivated to shoot also :))

Bogen Sport Magazin

I'm in the Bogen Sport Magazin ;))

No shooting in couple day, just taking vacation and visiting

Shooting again 60m and 70m

First I started with the 60m. First some warming arrows and the 6*6arrow.. Better score that last time I shot, now 316. After that I moved to 70m. First serie amazing 55points :). Two X, 10, 9, 8 and 8. After that was little difficult to shoot so in the next one 44point ;). But all together 295points.
I was happy to that. I have hope to brake the 300 point in 70m, that would be nice goal in the summer, in some Fita round... It is much easier to shoot 70m, that 50m. I noticed that today. It's in 50m like you have to get all arrows inside the yellow, but in 70m, the thinking is like, somewhere there is good enough... :)... Have to get that feeling in the 50m also...

today

Shooting in Rumst 60m and 70m.. It's fun to shoot longer distancies, I like them. There I can accept that all the arrows are not in yellow. And also practicing for the Barebow Fita, what is in Finland 70m and 60m to 122cm target and 50m and 30m to 80cm target. I was just shooting some time and after that shooted 70m 6*6arrows = 278 and 60m 6*6arrows = 302.

Second day

Sundays field was tuffiest field that I have ever shot. All day it was up and down shooting. "best" target was 20m/40cm up 15m and forward like 8m. So the angle had to be like 50-60 up. Went whit 15m mark, and it was okey.. 14 points to that, very happy. Also very happy that day score 335. There was no low scores, but no high scores. All was like 12-16points, with one 10 points...
Now I stay with these arrows and this bow, that I have now. All together 667 points in Vertus, that is good.
Three weeks and then Trier, the field is as tuff as in Vertus, trying to get little better score that Vertus :).

First day in Vertus

The start was little sticky, first 6-7 targets was really difficult, not for the distancies, but I was not sure where the arrows goes and so. First 3-4 targets the arrows were in left, so I turned the plunger so that the arrows stayed in the middle. After that it was much easier too shoot, when I noticed that the bow and the arrows were working well. So, after half way of the day, I shot next 6 target very good and the score was 90 point to that. All day score was 332 with 20 X(6). I was really happy to that score, and it was much easier to go to the next day :))).
