San Diego

Click on the title or here for the full suite of pictures. I flew out to San Diego for a friend's wedding and a chance to meet up with fellow Techers as well as a little bit of a pilgrimage to the Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista, CA.

Possibly more details later. I think I caught a cold from the boogery person next to me on one of the flights back.

Sunshine State Games 2011

As always, click either the title or here for the full suite of pictures.

Just for self-amusement purposes, I shot the Chek-Mate Hunter 1 with the GoldTip 1535 arrows. I figured worst case scenario was I was chasing my arrows everywhere... best case scenario being I shot some record high scores. In any event I knew I was going to have a lot of fun with friends. I finished the FITA with an 833, 20 points short of tying my record from last year, and the 900 with a 676, 14 points short of tying my personal high a few months ago but 56 points ahead of last year's Sunshine State Games record. So yeah, I shot extremely well.

Best round at 70 meters in the FITA round -- also the final round at 70 meters.

Funniest round for me at 60 meters in the FITA round. I had an outlier in the upper blue somewhere. Great group, wrong place!

1st in Adult Female Barebow for the FITA.

Me and the trusty Chek-Mate Hunter 1. There's a reason why I jokingly refer to it as either "shorty" or "old reliable".

Final end of the 900 round with my fellow traditional archer in the young adult division.

Best round at 50 yards in the 900 round.
