Archer Girl


So I found out when I went to archery tonight, that the club will only be able to shoot at the gallery once a month during the summer. Mainly because the indoor range breaks during the summer. However, there is an outdoor shooting range that opens up in the summer. The sucky thing is that you need to have your own equipment.

So whilst archery may be on hiatus for me during the hot months, I may try something else. I’ve been thinking of perhaps indoor rock climbing! I’ve always wanted to try.

After what feels like a lifetime away and an hour and half into a rather shiteous session, one little tip from the supervisor, in the form of moving my back leg a couple of inches behind me, can land me 2 bulls-eyes within a couple of turns. That smidgen of a movement in form was all the difference to help turn my upper body more in line with the target.


First bulls-eye of the night (1/2 hour before closing)


Second bulls-eye a couple of ends later

I don’t know what tripped me out more: that fact that I was able to nail that bullseye so effortlessly with such a minor adjustment in my stance or that I was so easily read.
