Default Dissapointments

Any of you have dissapointing shoots? I mean the night after a stressful day at work and you cant get a good group, your timing is just off and what not? I had one of those the other day. I broke 3 arrows, 2 hit the metal support for my target and the tips are starting to crack. And i robin hooded another one causing it to break. I hate breaking my expensive arrows. I also couldnt get a good group for the life of me.Sodiscourging as the season gets close. I'll be back out there tonight to"re-group", i just hope im not the only one who cant shoot now and then.

If not for the ruined arrows the robin hood is a brite spot . Never had one myself so that would be cool....once.
Better luck today.

Ya i have had days like that. If i was shooting good the day before i just walk back to the house and wait an hour or so and go back out, or just wait to tommarow.

I think we all have bad days from time to time. The key is just getting back up on the horse after falling off. Focus on your form and I am sure your groups will tighten up once again.

Everybody has bad days.

If they say they don't then they're lying. Even pros have bad days.
