High Elm Westerns 08/08/2010

The day after the Warrington (Cheshire) shoot, I competed with the adults at the annual western rounds held at the High Elm archer’s venue, of Altcar rifle ranges Liverpool.

It was a sunny day with a slight wind, not bad weather for shooting.

It was only a short shoot (4dozen at 60 yards and 4 dozen at 50 yards), I normally shoot excellent at the western round, and by the 1st dozen I was ranked 1st gent on the leader board. I stayed in this position for the rest of the day. I was on form for getting a personal best, but when the distance came down to 50 yards, I started to relax a little too early. I shot a few poor scoring arrows, but I still won the 1st place trophy and medal in the gent recurve section. I was fairly happy with the way I shot, but I know I could have done a lot better.
