what a roller coaster weekend !
my daughter shot in a skeet tournament this weekend, the first registered (serious) shooting in almost a year, we shoot in a casual Tues. night league mostly and 2022 has been the least she's shot since she started 4 years ago, I was hoping for 95 out of a hundred in each gauge, it's like golf in the last two or three strokes really separates the best shooters from the good, most time anything under 98 is just "thank you for attending"

Sat was 12ga and 20ga 85 and 71, what a let down, wind was out of the sails, the magic left the building, while she shoots I usually try to find a shady place out of view so I'm not a distraction and between rounds of 25 it's usually nothing more than "trust your routine" "one target at a time" I'm not a good shooter or a good coach so I'm left analyzing facts when the truth is it's totally mental at that point, I usually try to present the options in a cold non-emotional format, "these are things that could be responsible for your score"
You've only shot 1/4 targets you normally do so far this year,
it's 98 degrees out,
Saturdays are usually not a good score because of jitters,
you've shot 28ga for the last year (no expected recoil to prepare for in your shooting)
wind was moving targets or machine was throwing erratic
did you stay up late, did you eat good are you hydrated ??

Sunday I was preparing how to pull us out of the ditch and what the plan could be going forward as 28ga and 410 are more difficult because you have less bb's in the shell,
28ga was 98/100 tied for 3rd place overall, two other shooters had 99's for high gun, (we learned not to try new stuff during a competition, she used a cool wrap on the back of her neck that hung down, on her first shot, the butt stock recoiled against the wrap, squeezing it and sending water down the inside of her shirt causing her to be unfocused and miss the next shot!)
410 was 91/100 which was an acceptable score especially considering how Sat. went,

@Scottintexas ”most time anything under 98 is just "thank you for attending””. Did you mean to say 88 here. Otherwise I’m following. Good story.

no, most every local shoot is won by a score of at least 99 and 100's are very common
we had about 65 shooters at this event, every gauge was won with a score of 99 out of 100,
if you go to a large state shoot (150 shooters) to win you should expect to have to shoot a 100 just to get into a "shoot off" with other 100 scores and many times the "high overall award" (four gauges combined) is 400 and even then it maybe be multiple shooters,

even though hand/eye coordination is a big part of it, doing it 100 times in a row is a real mental grind and what separates the good from the best,
one of our shooting mentors told us, "the good shooters just make it look easy, you don't see the mental work they go through internally on each shot to make it happen"

I’m so sick of this heat. I feel her pain. I played in a 2 day golf tournament. 91 on Saturday and 98 on Sunday. Horrible scores. When you’re carving the ball off the tee boxes into the neighborhoods and putting 9s and 10s on the scorecard it’s freakin deflating.

Squad cars are about as much fun as fire trucks. Had to remove all of this to get to a strobe that doesn’t work so I can order a new one and remove all of this again when the replacement comes in.

Didn't see this in person, but it came across as an alert on my phone.
Thankfully just Coors Light....
