confuse
i have just finished tournament last week. i shoot air pistol and 50m pistol event..for this tournament,i train 50m more than air bcoz i think both event is quite similar..a week before the air pistol event, i shot 573, which i my personal best..but when the day comes for the air pistol match day, i became confuse..i shot only 555..i didnt squeeze the trigger well..i lift up the gun few times before releasing the shot..i wasted my hold..during the match, i adjust the trigger to move a little bit forward..i became confuse with my triggering at that time. where is the best place or best part to place my finger at the trigger..is it at the tip of my finger??..n what happen to me at the tournament..?? can anyone help me..
Was your personalbest from a match or just training?
If it is training this would be normal.
Try to put your trigger back to where it was when you sat your p.best, as this seem to have worked pretty well.
If you are still pretty new to the game it is quite normal to be uneven in your scores from time to time. There are also a lot of other factors that play a role here, maybe you tried to hard since you just had a new p.best.
Just keep up the good training an get a lot of matches and i think you will be ok and more stable with time.
Good luck and merry christmas

It sounds like match pressure. Some suggestions: Train like you are shooting a match and shoot a match like it is training. Shoot as many matches as possible. Learn the techniques of controlling match pressure. There are some good books on the subject, like "Psycho Cybernetics" by Dr. Maxwell Maltz. If you have access to a sports phychologist, take advantage of it.
