Archery Updates: Mechanically Inclined

http://anharchery.blogspot.com/2009/01/mechanically-inclined.html

Wednesday, January 14, 2009. Only scored half a round this past Saturday. Opened with my usual 23, and the next 4 ends took me to a 113. With no consistency, clearly I was having some problems with my shooting, so I decided to drop the scoring and work on my shot mechanics instead. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Thoughts on the Subject.

Archery Updates: February 2009

http://anharchery.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html

Wednesday, February 11, 2009. Thoughts on the Side. Took the bow out to the range, and took a pair of warm up ends totaling seven arrows. Felt pretty good about my setup, so even with a slightly fatigued shoulder, I decided to dive right in. Compared to 25 Pace. Opening a little better than a 23, I would say. Shoulder shaking a little, but that's just fatigue. No pain to speak of, and things are looking pretty good. That's when the wheels fell off the wagon. Wednesday, February 4, 2009. Anthony then let ...

Archery Updates: July 2008

http://anharchery.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html

Tuesday, July 22, 2008. PT yesterday. More massage, electroshock therapy, and some range-of-motion work. Woke up with a stiff shoulder today. Does not hurt too. Much, but stiff. More PT tomorrow. We'll see how it goes. Counting the days until I can shoot again. Pretty sure there will be a trip to the range first. A very depressing trip where I just collect my bow for the long flight across the country. Saturday, July 19, 2008. Not Where I'm Supposed to Be. And my shoulder hurts. Thursday, July 17, 2008.

Archery Updates: October 2008

http://anharchery.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html

Saturday, October 18, 2008. Third, it makes me tighten things up even further. Someone once told me, when I was trying to shoot 40s instead of 60s at 18 meters, that the center is still the center, and the same holds true at 70 meters. So, if I can learn to shoot well at 70 meters on a 80, imagine how I'll do when I get a 122 out there. And when I got home from the range, waiting for me at the back door, was a new set of latches and keys for my case from SKB. And a set of wheels. Don't know why t...I'm s...

Archery Updates: November 2008

http://anharchery.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html

Saturday, November 22, 2008. One Last Round in the Park. In the next lane over, another archer was shooting an Inno from 70 meters. It was a little nervewracking to see him aiming, since from that distance, at such a narrow angle, he could just as easily have been aiming at me. But watching the arrow fly was thing of beauty. You just never get to stand that close to a flying arrow. But that's a different problem for a different day. Today is about a good and satisfying trip to the range. On my first pass...

Archery Updates: Thoughts on the Subject

http://anharchery.blogspot.com/2009/01/thoughts-on-subject.html

Wednesday, January 28, 2009. Thoughts on the Subject. A few random thoughts, organized relatively randomly. Last week, through 6 ends, I had 150 points. This week, through six ends, I had 115 (added up after I gave up on scoring). So I stopped scoring and just started shooting. Once I didn't care any more, among other ends, I hit a 29, missing a 30 by about the width of a vane (maybe 2 widths). Just a mechanical day, I guess. I'll be helping that business this weekend. Finally going to complete (?

Archery Updates: December 2008

http://anharchery.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html

Wednesday, December 31, 2008. Doing, Teaching, and Dueling. Those Who Can, Do. Went out to the range, walking across a rainy Dedham, trying to improve on last week's pretty good showing. Could not get any kind of consistency, though. Opened with a 23 (of course), and never made any real move to catch up to 25 pace. When all was said and done, I had posted a 227. Good enough to improve on my first scoring round a few weeks ago, but still a loss of 9 points from last weekend. Those Who Can't, Teach. As the...
