Yes it is, it means whenever you didn't hit gold (the yellow rings in the centre) during Archery practice or during a competition.

The church's version of "sin" comes from the idea of a sin being an imperfection, a flaw, that can be improved on, and any Englishman during the entire medieval period could relate to this idea.

(NOTE: I am a real archer and am an expert on the topic)

Is it a sin to show your nakedness and tempt in sexual ways?

The word sin is a religious term so it would depend on what religion you worship. In Islam and some Christian beliefs it is a sin if you aren't married to the target of your temptation. Depending on the situation it may be ill advised, but I do not consider it a sin.
