Another tough week. Can't really make equipment excuses. I still need a new cable, but my DL is tuned right and the bow was sighted in perfectly as is blatantly obvious by my x count. I think every time I missed the x ring, I put it clean into the 9. One shot I even managed to toss out of the yellow into thetomato patch as a clean 7 [:@]. It's been a while since I've put one in the red. There is nothing worse in the world than a 27 - 2x.....lol. I've seen guys shoot perfect 450's with lower x counts than I had tonight .

The first game I was just really nervous for some reason, we had a full house tonight of 2 lines of shooters with 14 guys on the bottom target line,and another 14 guys on the top line.I ended up with some dude that was constantly sticking me in the back with his bow for the first few ends until I asked him to be a bit more careful, and I unfortunately letmy irritationget into my head. I reallydidn't settle down until after the first game.

My coach says that anytime I write or journal about my performance that it's critical to end it on a good note. I can say I shot a pretty good last 2x games tonight, and that I let down morewhen I knew that it wasn't going to be a perfect shot.Every time I let down tonight, I ended up shooting an X when I set myself back up. It also felt awesome to end the game with a 30-3x end.

Getting back in front of the coach again starting next week. I'm really looking forard to the next several weeks.
