memnus: Me with my bow at full draw, with quote "Just Dynamic Tension" (Dynamic Tension)
Tournament report: Utah Open 2007

I don't like the Vegas round. It's more crowded on the line (this may be as much of a product of Salt Lake Archery), not the rhythm I'm used to, and the promise of a monetary reward puts an unwelcome tension in the air. That said, this tournament was nothing important to me. Count me out of the cash divisions, and the only other competition in collgiate was Terry.

None of this is an excuse for my performance. My shooting should have been much better, with distressing numbers of 26-or-worse ends. Only the occasional 29 saved my ass and put me to scores that, while I'm not thrilled about, I don't have to cry myself to sleep over. I hace a lot of work left before February - the next anything-at-all - but I think the majority of what I need is more time, and motivation, to practice. The difference between four hundred arrows and a thousand arrows each week is huge. never mind that I need to find a way to practice over break while out of town...
