Just wasn't to be

This past weekend was the 2019 Pyramyd Air Cup. Last year I won the hunter pcp division and got the Ataman M2S as my prize. Well, I thought this past weekend was going to be exceptional given that I was in Grenville and had gotten a new personal high score. But that didn't happen, I ended up finishing 11th or 12th out of 66 which isn't bad, but just wasn't what I was hoping for. But I'm still glad that I went. I saw many old friends and made many new friends and the weather was absolutely beautiful. So while I didn't win anything, I did figure out that "something" was off. I now need to figure out just what that was. This is the process anyone goes through if they want to improve -- analyze each shot to figure out what went wrong or right. And it could be a physical thing, did I get enough rest, the right foods, etc. Everything that we do on a daily basis comes into play when you are expected to be at the top of your game over a 5-6 hour period. Yes, 5-6 hours. We had 4 person squads, 5-minute time limits, and 15 lanes. So the quickest it could have gone is 5 hours, but add in additional time for lane changing and waiting on the next group to finish and it was closer to 6. Make sure you bring snacks and drink(s) to a larger match like this.
