County Champs ...

... this weekend - Archery, that is. Eldest son was competing and I went along to support him ....... and catch up with a few friends. Still not shooting myself at the moment otherwise I'd have been competing as well - lol! Weather was reasonable, although a bit breezy yesterday as, this year, he was shooting both days. The actual Championship day was today though. He had a bit of a disaster a little way into the shoot yesterday and he ended up having to shoot in a totally alien way to what he's used to. Despite that he came 2nd, missing 1st place by just 12 points. Today he had to continue to shoot the way he ended up yesterday, having had no time to put his equipment back as he's used to. We think, because he's not used to shooting 2 days on a trot, that he suffered from tiredness - lack of stamina - today and he wasn't comfortable or happy with his score. He wasn't in the first 3 places and we won't know for sure, until the official results come out, what position he ended up in for the Championship but, we think it may be 4th. All told, considering the problems he encountered, not a bad result but he's not happy with it - lol!

Thanks for dropping by .....
