A couple years back the Gang participated in an honors system “virtual” shoot.  Anyone else remember that?  With all the social distancing going on right now, a virtual shoot is starting to sound pretty nice.

The other site has something similar with "first shoot of the day."

I believe I still have the pdf of the target we used if we decide to run it again.

I’ve been searching for the old post that has the “rules” for the competition.  Anyone remember them?

3 arrows max score of 30 points. Scoring rings started at 10 and went down 2 points per ring. I want to say we shot from 15 or so yards.

Thanks for the reminder.  Would you please post the .pdf of the target.  Can’t wait to print it out and miss it by a mile.

Couldn't find the original pdf but made up a new one to the same specs real quick. Let me know if anyone has trouble accessing it.

Anyone interested in doing this as a virtual league?
Say once a week we do a thread where you can shoot and post up your scores just for some fun?

Just downloaded and printed copies of the target. If we get enough interest, I am up for a league.  I’d even offer to keep score. It won’t be hard for me to add up all of my zeros.  :biglaugh:

Another fun way you could do this, have a small target like a water bottle cap hang in front of a backstop.
Shoot at the target and count how many shots to hit it.
Could have a few different ranges like 10yds, 15yds, you get the idea.
Would score like golf, the low score is the winner.

If I remember correctly, whoever shot the best score this week would set the parameters for the next week, yardage, position, bow cant, # of arrows, warm-up or not, etc...

I'll sign up,  I'm trying to develop a new arrow anyway.   No laughing at my scores though,  well at least not to my face  :biglaugh:
