Centering and Relaxation Techniques

[FLshooter]

That's a good comment. I once heard a shooting coach say to stay hydrated, especially leading up to a shooting session. Dehydration, even mild dehydration inhibits tear production which leads to dry eyes, itchy/blinking eyes, and vision problems. Plus all the other symptoms of dehydration; headaches, feeling tired and light-headed (although to be fair, they are typical of more severe dehydration). But tired, itchy eyes...drink some more.

I keep forgetting to do all this stuff and only remember on the forum...Hopeless.

Living in FL and being a contractor,I carry a med size cooler w/bottles of water in my truck almost every day and a towel.It’s nearing mid January and highs in the daytime are in the 80’s! It gets tough to shoot in the month of June and July ,the weather stays in the mid 90’s.I’m not a big guy who sweats a lot and after 30 minutes I start sweating all over my rifle and get dehydrated ,which is why,in those months I limit my range time.
I like the winter months because we have a lot of days that are in the low to mid 70s ,great shooting weather.
