All change please...all change!

In the last few weeks I have decided to move forward my field archery adventure to this year. It all came about a few weeks ago when I was practising target but all I could think about was field, and looking forward to next year. To me it did not make sense to spend a year shooting target but not being 100% committed to it.

So, all my target shoots have been cancelled and I am now looking at which field shoots I can attend this year. Some serious distance estimate practice is now needed.

And to top it all, a new bow is on the way. A PSE Supra ME, black riser and camo limbs. Mmmm!

One month until it all starts again!

So, I have exactly one month until the outdoor season starts again. I am at the Meriden Pre-Season FITA Star on the 1st of April. Hopefully I will be no April fool!

I have set aside the next month to get into the groove of shooting timed FITA distances. I wanted to do this a little sooner but I have been attending some Winter Field League shoots so target has taken a bit of a back seat.

Whilst on the subject of field archery, as things stand at the moment I am intending to have a break from target archery next season and focus fully on field archery. The time has come to take a break from the yearly grind and do something different. I will still practice 90m weekly where possible to stay in tune with the big distances, but I do believe if I am to achieve my dream of GMB (if I don't do it this year), then I need to do something different and freshen myself up.

But this year is all about going for GMB, so I have booked up plenty of comps to give my self a decent chance. If I don't do it, I am not going to sweat it. I am proud of my achievements over the past two years and I am sure I will have a good season again this year.
