It might be good to go over your target dimensions one more time Please.  never mind I got it on page one

10= quarter size (unless ur from oz)
8=  3" ring
6=  5 1/4 ring
4=  the rest of the nine inch plate

Cuts only no leaners....


Good luck to the crowd....

OK I'll be first to post.

That was pretty tough since I don't normally shoot like that.

   

16 total score.

By the way Snakebite I like your sig line...  :D
Zona Custom Recurve: 60" 49# @ 27.5".
Sky Sky Hawk Recurve: 60" 47# @ 27.5".

Great first challenge!  I only have two 125gr field points so I have two pics.  This is with the Samick.  Loving this bow.

First two after 3 warm-ups (glad I took my warm-ups turned around):

   

Second two:
   

If cut line is higher score, put me at 32.  (Thanks, Snakebit)

Good fun!

Look at a post above for the dia. of the circles.  I believe it is a 9" plate, and the less technical circle sizes are the natural circle line in the plate just inside the fold pattern, inside of a roll of duct tape, and a quarter.  Someone correct me if I am wrong.  About the circles that is.    :D

I have a question.  How long is a step?  Are we talking yards?

Welp, here's mine, not too good but leaves room for a massive come-back on round 2       :D    

Picture is click-able for the full size shot    ;)      

       

If cuts count for the inside ring I guess I got 24. Shot with a #47 Bob Lee longbow  :)

Here's my target from today.  24 points, not a bad way to start I guess.

 

I hope everyone enjoys Memorial Day and take some time to honor the men and women who have sacraficed so much for the rest of us.
