The Think Tank

I felt that I shot pretty well on the whole, I did a very good job of holding my form after the shot was gone, but I was in one of those all-or-nothing modes.  Really good shots that hit x’s, or really bad shots that missed by a mile.  I finished with a 295 / 20x, and that was with a goose egg on the final end.

I felt fairly confident going into the eliminations.  Whenever I shot a good shot, it hit an X.  I felt pretty calm as far as nerves… a little jittery, but nothing bad.  Just the kind of thing that usually will keep my strong and on my toes.  My practice arrows were all X’s, and I X’d out my first end as well.  The second end started well for the first two arrows, but I flubbed my final arrow and shot it right out the top at 12.  It was one of those shots that took a little too long but felt good right up until it broke, and then I flopped my arm straight down and my release hand went crazy.

Qualified 4, finished 5.
