Hmm seems like Haldir has abandoned her club...
*points to own previous post on page 22 in case Haldir should come by*

Yay, Haldir's back.. finally!!
Yes, it does make sense, actually my problem is more with the left/right aiming than with high/low... anyway, I shoot outdoor so when the coming fall and winter I wont be able to practise that much *sighs*

aww ... well fall's okay i guess but not winter 
wellllll... if your arrow always flies to one side, then it would make sense to shift your aim a bit to the opposite side, right? _________________

*hides behind the nearest tree in order not to get hit by flying objects*
Sorry, I'll be nice....
