The (mis)adventures and thoughts of an aspiring master archer, lifter, and fantasy author who happens to be irresistibly drawn towards wolves, raptors, and parrots. They may say there's no such thing as Paradise or Perfection, yet I'm still searching for them. Why do I keep searching? A voice speaks to me and says: "Search for Paradise and aspire for Perfection"...

Day 1 of FAA State Championships
I survived day 1 of the target shoot state championships, which was an American 900 round. It consists of 5 ends of 6 arrows at 60, 50, and 40 yards. Anyway, I went uncontested in my own division but had some really nice competition from friends new and old. I finished with a 497/900 (136 at 60, 170 at 50, and 191 at 40) -- which was a pretty decent score given humidity, wind, and rain. It certainly wasn't my highest ever 900 score -- scored a 526 at the Villages but most of my points were at 40 yards. My 50 and 60 yards were really, really good today. Apparently I was really keyed in at 50 yards after sacrificing the first round for re-calibration. My 40 wasn't as strong, but it was about what I was expecting for today. The score I had at 40 yards that one day in the Villages was insanely good for me and actually put my Bowtech Equalizer to shame so yeah, I wasn't expecting to recreate THAT score but I wouldn't complain if I did!
