Just got back from an amazing couple of days with Amy down at Lilleshall training with the GB team! It's been an intense couple if days and I feel so lucky to have experienced a glimpse into the life of an international archery team.
Everyone has been so nice and I've learnt so much. Big thing I've learnt is that my bow was seriously out if tune. Lloyd got me onto the slo-mo camera to see my arrows slapping around like an elastic band! Basically, amongst everything else, my arrows were waaaaay too weak. Trying out with some stiffer shafts showed it clearing my bow much cleaner and a miles better grouping.
I also did loads of gym work too.
The only bad thing is that I felt a serious 'pop' in my shoulder and it looks like I've pulled my bicep tendon meaning I'm going to miss this weekends 720 and Western we'd got planned :(
Big thanks to Amy for arranging it, taking me down, looking after me and sorting me out! Can't thank you enough, it's been fantastic.
