Default Ever have one of those days?

Well, I worked at the shop last night, ordered my new rig, some new arrows and such, and was gonna shoot my league score. Took a couple of practice shots and got under way. I dropped 8 points my first 7 shots!!! I put the bow away, went to the corner and sucked my thumb for a while....I couldn't shoot my way out of a wet paper bag last night....

Ya'll ever have those days?

Sucked your thumb I just about spit my coffee on the key board when i read that. Youll be all right.I cant shoot my way out of a wet paper bag also, cause its frozen solid.[8D]suck it up and get to it you still would have shot better than me had you finished.[]

It seems I have one of those days every time a shoot.[8D]. Dont let that get to your head, I did that a few weeks ago, and its tough to go back to shooting w/o thinking about dropping pts.

I did that my second scratch score. It took me 9 rounds to figure out that my scope mounting block was loose on my sight.

Yes I sure do...but those days usually consist of a combination of factors.

Including, but not limited to....

The Wind
The Temp
Combination of the Wind and the Temp (Wind Chill)
My bad Shoulder

But I forgot to add...I man up and continue shooting and post my bad score!!

See, that's the difference between the MATURE shooter and the IMMATURE shooter....Us mature shooters stop on nights like that to avoid developing bad habits......But apparently it's too late for you now anyway.....

Can't say I have ever dropped 8 points in 7 shots. I've hit a blank before but had 3 X's and a 5 to go with it......(tried to let down and bumped my release).

My arrow hit about 3 foot low of my target. DOH.....
