[Archers] Sponsored Shoot at Pennsic

Great questions all!

I would like to setup the shoot in a sustainable way, that is that it does
not burn a single person out, and like wise at any moment if Mundane Life
kidnaps any one person the shoot will continue to run with little
interruption.  So, I would propose a small group to manage the shoot, say
three people from all ends of the kingdom so that one of them has seen each
of the suggested targets, and can select which will be used, and which will
be backups (in case someone can't show or a target falls apart or whatever),
as well select the theme for the year.

If we put it as Atlantia challenging all the other Kingdoms, then each
Kingdom's "A" team should get first crack at the shoot (before the targets
get too beat up), then yes the shoot would be opened to the entire known
world.  My thought was if the team wants to compete for the big prize, then
it has to have one of each bow type.  However to encourage all to come play,
teams that don't met the bow requirements can still shoot.  This would allow
3 random archers at the range to form a team and go shoot for fun.  The goal
would be to challenge the kingdoms, but not make it elitist like the Masters
is.

Each kingdom could form its "A" team however it sees fit.  For Atlantia, I
would recommend the Kingdom Champion, then fill the other two bow types from
the rest of the 8 finalists using the highest scoring in each type.

I also like the idea of having prize arrows for the winning team, besides
just choosing the charity to receive the money.

My 2c,
Jonathas
