I shot the Arlington Fairfax Chapter-IWLA World Archery Indoor Tournament in VA and took first place in my division. Shooting a 280 and a 281 for a 561. I set a new record for this event. I was however not pleased with my shooting. I am still shooting too many nines most of the are just barely out of the inter ten ring. I must tighten my group. Any ideas George? I will shoot videos today at practice to send to you. By the way I have scheduled a lesson with you in April. It will be for my first quarter lesson since I could not get it scheduled in our first quarter this year. Looking forward to seeing and working with you.

Monday night practice getting ready for the NFAA tournament this coming weekend. Target from tonight if you want to comment on it.

Getting prepared for the NFAA State and Regionals at First Flight this weekend also the Nationals in Cincinnati OH. I am shooting fairly well just need more Xs.

On February 23rd and 24th I shot the GA 50 US National Indoor Championship. I feel good except for an injured knee. I shot fair but not great 555 day one and 557 day two for a total of 1112. With this I took third at the tournament. I had a equipment problem the second day which I should have found sooner. My arrows kept going high. I kept adjusting my sight but eventually found my scope was lose. Tighten this and removing the other adjustments got me back to center. I am so close. Most of my nines hit the outer ten ring if I can just shrink my group 1/4 to 3/8 of an inch I will hit a lot more 10s.

My target from the league shoot Thursday evening. This is just from the shoot. I changed targets after practice before the league shoot. This is Lancaster scoring so 330 possible and I shot a 307. Good but not great and it is a PB for Lancaster scoring. I have been trying to work on moving my shoulder back instead of moving my hand to my face for anchor but I am not sure I am doing it correctly. I need to shoot a video.

Last nights target. I have been hanging my targets at different rotations to cause me to shoot different patterns. This is 27s back at 20 yards. Far to many X misses but a fair number of hits. I had trouble focusing and thought about stopping early but I wanted to shoot so I worked on holding and focusing on center with a correct follow through knowing I am having trouble with my general focus. I am not sure if this was bad but it was what I did.

Good practice last night. Arrows outside of the ten ring were all from sighting in. This is from ten yards with a 120 second clock. The JOAD class was shooting with the clock so I did also. They also were told to let down at three different times and wait for 15 seconds on the clock to shoot. I did this also. I was working on holding on and focusing on center and when the release goes off to follow through.

This is a target from a drill I have been working on at ten yards. For this drill I have been working on holding and focusing on center and not having any movement when my release goes off except follow through. I feel like this is helping me. There were 33 arrows shot into this target.

Thanks for commenting on the videos from the workshop. I am working on your observation. This target is from my first end at the FITA of PA tournament at Lancaster Sunday. I was shooting well and shot a 286 and earned my JOAD Sliver Olympic pin. I am pretty pleased with this both my score a PB for inter-ten and the pin. My second end was fair shooting a 279 which gave me a 565 and the gold. I will try to be better at posting my progress. Sounds like winter camp was fun.

This target is from a tournament at Boneyard Archery the weekend before the one at Lancaster. I shot a 280 for this end but the big deal for my was that in ends 5 and 6 I shot six Xs in a row earning my Six Gold JOAD pin. 
In the other end I shot a 278. I feel like I am so close but just not there.
