Golf and archery.

The weights piled on over winter but towards the end of February which wont be long i am cutting down on the chocalates ice cream and cakes and getting ready to get back into action.  I often feel better when i am active and its important as we get older to stay on the move as much as possible.

My partner and i will be back playing golf again just for fun competing against each other.  I swear he gets some quiet practice some where i dont know about but i still leave him with a long face and a moody when i beat him, he can wack the ball furthur than me but i can putt better.

My game is still archery i get more of a buzz from it than i do from golf  i find it much more exciting so i know i will be back there giving it a go with no great expectations after such a long break, it will be like rding a horse after years of break from it i will be left with some aces and pains to remember.

Golf is a much more relaxed game archery gives an adrenalin rush  like riding a wild horse thrills and spills, you keep going back for more.

Lazy me.

I have done no archery atall through the winter having given up the indoor stuff.   It is too cold outdoors for me so i know how hard it will be come summer when i venture out to give it another go and this time i intend to try barebow.

   I know we are not supposed to keep changing bows at least not in the early days but this is my third year as an archer and i already did that, it was to my regret because it set me back a lot.  But i now can see that scores may not be so high but certainly bare bow is far less complicated and i am keen to give it a try come summer and i am not entering the olympics at my age scores dont matter too much to me.

 Too many people i see flogging themselves to achieve great heights and one day find themselves asking why they bothered, who cares, i dont want to be one of them.
