My guess is indoor 20yrd spots target score.
230 out of 300

You get 5 shots and the distance and stance is up to you. Go for the eaiser low point shot, or risk extra points by backing up.

You can move up or back at any time. All 5 shots can be taken at 1 position or a combo of all distances.

10 yards 1 point per hit
15 yards 3 points per hit
20 yards 5 points per hit
25 yards 7 points per hit

We haven't had a new shot in about two weeks now.  I don't know who's turn it is so how about some ideas for this week?

Maybe we can get a group of ideas together and schedule them so we have some shots set up for the future.

Try to shoot thru the center hole of a CD, twelve yards sitting. If you miss the CD altogether shoot again, if you miss by just a little bit, well, you get the picture.
 
Tip: Use a CD that you no longer listen to, or better yet, borrow one from one of your buddies.

So, the  "CD Shoot-Through"   :confused:      IS  The Next Challenge? At 12 Yards. Just making sure, because I can Shoot at some of My Daughters Old Weirdo CDs   :rolleyes:    that She left at Home when She moved out!!   :thumbsup:    I will ask first, just to be Safe!   :archer:      :goldtooth:
