Ok recently I've been going up and down with my shooting, on some days I'm shooting new PBs and some days I'm just shooting badly. e.g. other day I shot a short Windsor and where I should be shooting over 700 I just broke 500, though in my defence it was very hot and humid and for some reason at 50yds I was aiming lower than what I do at 40 and still going high.
Anyway my handicap currently is 62/61 which is generally what I shoot to, very occasionally I might break a 60. Last night was just a practice and someone suggested doing a round (Long National). So after sighters (which were one end of misses at 80yds, and another end with 1 arrow on target) we started. Not excepting much after sighters and landed to manage 5 on the boss, by the end of the 4 dozen I was getting 2-3 on the boss. At 60yds I didn't miss (6 on is normally a challenge)
So by the end of the shoot, I noted my score to put in records thinking I hadn't done too badly but hadn't expected much. Look it up on archers mate and I shot to a 55 handicap (Score was 253 beating old PB by over 100points). Which shocked the hell out to me, so has anyone else had one of those nights where your shooting as just gone so right its bazaar?
