Thumb Ring!

[Alina]

I got a thumb ring today! Of course UPS delivered too late for me to go try it out, but it makes it soooo much easier to draw my bow! I'm really excited about not getting serious pain in my thumb when I shoot. I'll go test it out tomorrow.

It's going to make a world of difference in the style of draw that you've been practicing.

Best of luck.
May your aim be true

Archery is hard.

That it is, like any other martial discipline. From longsword to seige, it takes time, patience and practice. Along with the work, should come a healthy dose of fun, put some variation in your shooting regimen, just a thought.

What I get out of it is personal achievement. There's no one else who can give you satisfaction in your shooting but you. There's no one else who you can blame for poor shooting, just you. And when it comes down to it, you're only competing against yourself and the last time you went shooting.
