I had my second session of archery at the weekend and shot for about 3-4 hours. I was shooting 30m for a good while and probably had on average one shot in 10 go awry and miss the target but was consistently hitting with the rest and normally within the red although to be honest they didn't group very well.
I then moved up to 40m and 50m and bizarrely got better at the long distance than I was at the shorter distances! Next move is to try and figure out what type of now I should buy and then work out where to get it from. I'm currently contemplating importing one from the UK or somewhere else because they are pretty expensive over here.
On the beer front - I now have pretty much all the kit I need to brew my first beer. I still don't have a fridge for total temperature control but I shall experiment with the cardboard box an frozen water bottle method for now as the homebrew shop guy said he made a really good beer in summer using that method - got him a 4th place In a beer comp.
So I shall first practise by just boiling up some water - work out how to hold it at the right temps and then put into my fermenter to be kept as close as possible to 20 degrees for about 5-6 days. I will also experiment with agitating the water two or three times a day as I would with a Ringwood type yeast.
