A lot has been happening. I’ve now got so many variables it will take a few thousand shots to begin to assimilate. Some people are probably very accurate naturally and are hunting beetles at twenty paces within days. I’ve been shooting on and off for a few years and l lose as many steps as I gain.
1. Stable base. If your body is swaying about so is your ammo.
2. Geometry of frame to arm to earth to bandset needs to be right angles if possible.
3. Consistent release: let the elastic pull the ammo out of your grip right into the target.
4. Picture laser through the ammo to the target via the yoke all at 90°.
5. Keep frame steady until ammo hits target
6. Consistent anchor.
and that’s just for starters. I always forget something and I’ll just have to keep on till it comes together.
One day this week I was shooting from 25, 20, 15 and 10 metres. It was a blast and the target looked very large at 10m after shooting from 20-25.
7. Aim at the smallest atom in the middle of your target.
This is all just me. I have a condition which makes my arm shake so accuracy will always be compromised.
Today I got some good’uns and some utter fliers.
