My coach told me to expect bad scores and mistakes because everybody gets the jitters at a match and the newer you are and the harder you try the worst the jitters.

HA!, I knew better because I knew how hard I worked and how good I was getting after 3 weeks of daily practice.

That lasted through the NMC match and the slow fire match where I managed to keep the majority of my shots on paper, man I was doing good. Then my target fell over because some numbskull shot the left leg out from under my target frame.

OOPS


Don't feel bad, you joined a very large and not exclusive club.
