decided not to wait till the last minute...I only have two arrows now, I busted a nock of the third last night.  so, two groups of two here.  

The first shot went according to plan, 45 degree angle is nearly my native tendency, I generally shoot right when I cant more then usual. Nailed it this time The backward shot gave me hell, turning into my prerequisite flyer for the group.
     :banghead:    
   

Third shot was great, I practice that exact shot and distance all the time, fourth one I released a tad early.
   

In the end it looks like this.
   

The bottom shot in the center, I think deserves an 8.  I believe the paper tore into the line due to the lightness of the paper not because of impact.  you be the judge
I'll claim two 6's an 8 and a ten.

 30 ttl

amazing how often we 'cut the line'.

HA!  Matt needs to send that target around, perhaps patent it.  Great idea.

Elkbreath, I enlarged your pic, clearly looks like a 10 to me.  I'd say 32.

Week 4...30 points

The 4 pointer was shot #3. Gonna have to practice that one.

 

I want to thank the OP. Because of this friendly competition I have been shooting almost every day from different angles and distances also sitting, kneeling, etc. Just any scenario I can think of. I actually feel myself getting better...Thanks!

Oh yeah...I also found I shoot better first thing in the morning.

If this was a contest about shooting consistent 22's I would have it in the bag! Think this is my 3rd 22 score! Not a bad group but just been shooting low, couple inches up would have been nice. Nice shooting everyone.

wow, some good shooting there.

Know this one will be hard for me,
10 points week 4. There is no excuses just bad shooting.
 

Had to try again and it went better.
Maybe I should practice more different positions.

Maybe some day we can shoot a round like poker hands, nominal distance 17 yds, 5 shots,results could be like  4-sixes plus a 10, or 2 eights and 3 fours.Would be kinda cool to see some of those hands come up.... It would make avoiding the 10 ring once in a while an ok thing.  :archer2:
