How many of you Guys have problems while trying to shoot for score ?

[Big_Bill]

I know when I'm downstairs, and shooting, it never seems to amaze me how often someone will disrupt my concentration as I attempt to shot for score !

Not while I'm having FUN ! But when I'm shooting for SCORE !

And it always happens after the sixth or seventh shot ?  Heavy walking over my head, asking questions that I have no idea of the answer, deciding to come down to just see me !!!!

Just try to keep your concentration, or get it back after someone distracts you asking where their keys are ! Like I even have a clue !

Even when I wait until everyone goes to bed, someone will get up and decide to get a midnight bite, or a glass of water. Or even come down to see how your doing ?

But this behavior never happens when I'm just practicing, NO NEVER !!!!  I could die, and never be missed !!!!

I was just wandering if this is happening to anyone other than me ?

Do I sense some frustration here??? ...

Well, Bill, good as your scores typically are, maybe it is a good thing to handicap you just a bit.  You could try the reverse strategy -- let everyone know you are going to shoot for a score -- "Don't you want to come watch?  I'd enjoy the company."  Chances are you will get your match score in without interruption.

And yes Bill its never when your goofing off... its ALWAYS when your trying to do something that people tend to need/want/talk to you

Mostly from myself Bill....especially when there are multiple targets (Steriod 15) close to each other...i tend to drift.

5 kids, 4 under 12, the floor above me might as well be a trampoline.

When shooting for score at 10m I can close and lock a door behind me (I have the only key). That alone doesn't help but the ipod, bose earbuds and a little pink floyd or maybe moody blues, usually takes care of all but the worst noise. 

NOTE that I would not do this if I could not absolutely lock myself in a safe area.
