Training - DURC - Air Rifle
Further progress with the air rifle tonight. Still throwing weird shots, but the methodology of creating good shots is getting more consistent and consistently tighter. Strange shots tend towards vertical, but are all visible. It seems to be an inner position and elbow position combination which causes sudden relaxations to drop the shot low or twitch it high, more often the former. I expect a few hundred more repetitions of good shots will drill out the inconsistencies. Another training session or two between now and the nationals and a decent score should be possible, though not hoping for anything particularly special. I won't pretend these groups are representative of my shooting but they do show how the good shots tightened up over the night, while the fliers remained bad. The first one was shot relatively early on, while the second one was the last ten shots of the match. Both are ten shot groups. It's getting there. I'm more concerned with getting the shot release and follow through down than anything else. That'll eliminate weird shots and get more deep tens and less scratchy nines all in one go. Most productive thing for now is to go ahead, focusing on getting good shots consistently.
