Don't feel badly about it.
And don't let it put you off.
We've all seen worse.
Like the young fellow, using his father's open gun, who ran by a target.
He retreated just fine, gun pointed downrange, unfortunately faster than the R.O.
He swept the poor guy's back, completely, left to right.
No doubt, that aged the R.O some.
The kid was back at the next match, though.
He got real good, too, and became a regular.
