I forgot all about crossbows. I love those, but I dont own one.
As for Archery, I dont ever see myself competing in it again, but maybe a lil backyard practice. Just dont have the interest I had back in the day.
LOL I feel anything but "impressive". More like a "has been", but at least I can say, "Ive been there, done that, got the hardware to prove it".
I do keep mulling over the poss of MA comp again. But now that Im transitioning and passing 100% as male, I dont see how I could. Im afraid if I show up as male now, all my past wins may get challenged. I used to blow my comp away as female, so it may be brought up.
I was the State AAU Champ for 2 yrs.
AOK Circuit State Champ 2 yrs.
AOK National Champ 1 yr.
And 1st in many divisions in diff state circuits.
Im well known, so couldnt hide. LOL My post trans name will be same as comp name, just a minor spelling change.
I also cant see myself at this age (48), and health level ever being able to compete at the even higher level.
I used to work a 12 hr shift. 1-2 hrs wgt train 5-6 days a wk. 2-4 hrs a day 6 days a wk., MA train. Then to top it off I road my bike to wk & gym about 16 miles a day. All this was pre heart surg & cancer. I retired because of the start of the heart probs.
After it got fixed, other things came up, and I never got back into it.
Now I just do Yoga, and a few MA workouts once in awhile.
