Archery is something that is fluid… it is always moving,

my form

my belief

my training regime

ALL seem to be in perpetual motion, sometimes improving, sometimes getting worse, but NEVER staying the same.

Very much like physical conditioning you NEVER maintain, your body is never in a constant state. The only constant is change, you are either getting fitter, stronger, more flexible, or going in the opposite direction.

I am in a period of ascendency at the moment, which is not hard considering where I have been :o )… Last weekend I won my first tournament for some time, only a local thing, but still a win is a win.

This evening I went to do a little prep for this weekend’s tournament, which is the national field champs in Walferdange, Luxembourg. Sight marks for 20 and 60 meters a couple of quick measures for peep height and sight length and hey presto a sight tape… If you are not using a program like archers advantage to set up your sight marks you are missing out on points and valuable training time.

If you are new to field archery, I would advise on just one thing… make sure you sight marks are really, REALLY accurate. If you don’t do anything else in prep you’ll have at least a sane couple of days on the field course, with a set of marks you can rely on.

Hopefully my form will continue to develop and I can take on Luxembourg’s finest…

Form is temporary, class is for ever :o )
