[QUOTE="Tac-O, post: 1912526, member: 109994"] I'm 33 and about 5'10" and 150-155 lbs. I run about 40-50 miles a week, occasional situps/pushups/pullups, and hike once or twice a week up something really steep with a 50ish lb pack and trekking poles. I shoot about 100 arrows with my 70lb bow a week. So, I'm actually in pretty decent physical condition. I guess "getting tired" could be a bit misleading! Not physically tired, but more as if near the end of 20 or 25 rounds I feel as though I'm not as settled behind the trigger, my trigger control doesn't feel as solid, and my head really starts to hurt from my muffs (sometimes I wear a hat with them and shouldn't because that makes it worse). I know I don't have a bad flinch, but possibly a slight one at times. All this is evidenced by the fact that I usually put up better groups in the first half of my session. I keep forgetting to do this, so hopefully I can remember today. I have a couple of dummy rounds that I need to mix into my live rounds and then load my magazine blindly, that way I can monitor my trigger control and any flinching that happens throughout the session.
