Old guy got tired

Got to finally get to an indoor 5 spot round Saturday.

I haven't been able to shoot much the past 3 weeks due to the weather and the dry firing and getting my bow set up again. I tend to lose strength fast if I don't get to shoot every day.

I've also been nursing a bad back and that morning I said I wasn't gonna go. Felt a little better that evening so I decided I would go. I did ok with the back as long as I didn't sit down between ends. Luckily there was enough shooters for two lines so I got to rest a little between ends. I was shooting my Deer Crossing Archery Full Caliber arrows for the first time. I've never shot the large diameter shafts before but after shooting them I really like them.

My first arrow was a 4. Shot good up through the 7th end. While I was waiting I told my wife I wasn't doing too bad as long as I didn't do something stupid. Then I did something stupid! I dropped an arrow on the line and it bounced just out of reach so I had to take a zero on that one. And yes, Full Calibers will bounce quite well if you drop one. Lol.

Shot another 4 in the final end. I was pretty fatigued by then and bumped my button struggling to draw my bow. How I even hit the target is beyond me but I got lucky. I think I'm gonna have to get a bow with less peak weight because locally it's not often they'll have enough shooters for two lines. If they had only enough for one line I likely wouldn't have been able to get through the complete round.

Anyway, had a great time and was a lot of fun getting back on the line and competing with the young guys. Ended up with 293-40X.  I was pleased with my score other than the first arrow. The dropped arrow and the 4 in the last end had nothing to do with my form and execution.
