Good good, ive got many good things to distract me from the humdrum of being employed, so life isnt too bad.

Hey Scotty, I shot a 220 with 9 X's on my first indoor shoot on Tuesday. Was the first time that I shot 60 shots in one go. I usually do about 20-30 per day so my arms were hurting in the last five shots. But hey I'm gonna do better next time.

Maybe you can help me, I started pulling my shots away at the fourth & fifth arrow. Its like my arm flicks the bow when I shoot, I missed about 9 shots.

What do you reckon?? Use the force!

Good to hear mate :D (Big Grin) Im still chasing 300, although ive done it in an australian version of it. I can do it, but lately ive not had much time to get out there and do it.

As for your form - think about your bow side shoulder. Think about getting it low and think relaxed. If youre pulling left, that usually means trigger punching and or target panic (youre using a release arnt you?) and if youre pulling right, it usually means youre choking the bow or youve got bow-side arm issues. Also give some serious thought to dropping poundage...them targets dont run away! If possible, try decreasing the letoff on your bow. My next bow will be lower letoff - it helps keep the string more stable immediately under release.

So many things can go wrong!!!

Hi Scott
Been through your gallery looking at what I think would be excellent material for the local competition.
Raincoat
Nearby
Deviant ID2
Except For
Backout.

Unless of course you take something more brilliant in the meantime.
These ones stand the test of time, for me. Time to get over the initial impact of an image whether it be for technical or aesthetic purposes.

They all use light brilliantly. Thats the magic of photography. LIGHT!

Scotty-Dollin In reply to suedollin [2008-01-18 21:13:02 +0000 UTC]

Nearby, raincoat and back out have all made the short list. Except for isnt too bad, but its not really saying much, its just nature photography and dev id2 is a bloody photo of myself, so im not doing that!

Im also seriously considering pointless marrige or interrogative, but itll be a lot of B+W...

suedollin In reply to Scotty-Dollin [2008-01-18 22:44:00 +0000 UTC]

I bet you that a black and white wins it!
That has become traditional.
Not a big fan of Interrogative. Goes well with the series, but doesn't say enough on its own. For me anyway.
Why don't you do a journal with thumbnails of your shortlist and ask your watchers. Might be an interesting exercise.

Thanks for the fave on Flaming Tree. Surprised you did. It could have been sharper.
There was a domestic going on inside the house where I took it.
I couldn't get out of there quick enough!

Random Hi-ness!
I've been pretty inactive on DA so thought I better check everyones galleries to see what i missed :p (Lick) You have nothing new :O (Eek)

guess you've just been working so hard :D (Big Grin) ;) (Wink)

You're gonna have to get some artistic sorts of shots of your bow and stuff, i'm sure you could do something pretty cool! I'd be interested in seeing what you come up with.
