if that is a 8" plate, what are the dimensions of the rings?

1" circle, then a 4" circle, then a 6" circle?

Osage is a tough act to follow, here's my meager attempt:

   

First shot was the 6 ring, two fours followed. To be honest, I was just glad I hit the darn thing     :biglaugh:  

Cheers Bona, was different this one   :)

In with a 20    :)

Wow some great shooting! I have to move my target outside for this so i dont shoot up the shop.  This one will take some practice time.

osage 61 may have 2 tens, that middle arrow looks like it might cut the 10 ring. My moneys on him for this week

Well, I'm sure not in Osage's league but here's mine. Very fine shooting brother!
 
 First shot was the worst score, of course but it got a little better. I used last weeks target so have the Xs on those holes. Looks to be 22.

 
 

 I wanted to practice more (not that it would have helped)but we've had rain every day since Sunday and I bit the bullet and went ahead and shot mine. It was fun b.glass. Thanks for the shot.

Over&Under,RAU; thanks for the vote on the ten point middle arrow    :thumbsup:   . However when I pulled the arrows and flattened the paper it confirmed that the arrow had only pushed against the ten ring. In the photo below we can see that it wasn't broken after all. Also, I appreciate the accolades from everyone; this week will be my 15 minutes of archery fame   :biglaugh:

I'm out of this round, and for at least the next couple of months.

I'm going to miss the shooting, all the challenges have been a ball, and I'm sorry I get to miss the target on this week's challenge.

Enjoy the fun shoot, and as it says have fun.

I may be in the same boat as Zradix. I just can't get that arrow to stay up shooting 3 under. I have one more idea I'm going to try tonight.

Nice shooting! Next week use a standard Sharpie to mark your lines please. These lines are a little thick lol. Thanks!

THANKS FOR SHOOTING EVERYBODY!!!

Once again, no pictures; I'm in the Yukon, dependent on campground internet, which is very slow. Anyway, I laid down in some wild rose bushes and tried this position, which ain't easy. After a few practice shots, my first shot for score was an 8; I thought maybe this wouldn't be bad, after all. My second shot proved different, however, and I missed the plate entirely. My third was back in the 8 ring, however. So a 24 is my score for this round.
I hope that if I have to use this shot for the real thing, that I am really close, like about a foot.
I wish I could send pics right now; I'm at a place called Dawson Peak, near Teslin, YT. It is absolutely beautiful.
