[Archers] My St Sebastian's II target

[loreleielkins at aol.com]

I wonder if each of the archers on the "team" roll for their word, then shoot all at once.  That should back it up more than any other.

I don’t want to restrict anyone’s ideas as long as they fit the theme and the plan. All target stations will need to accommodate multiple shooters at one time. With our goal to double our attendance this year, this will be a must. Eirik do you think we can pull that off with this station?
 
Thanks…. Janyn

Hi all,

 

I don't want to put a damper on this, because it does sound like a neat idea, but

I have a few concerns.

How many people will be able to shoot this at a time?  Will it be easy enough

for the line marshal to determine if someone's arrows are hitting in the correct order?

 

If it is a one person at a time, this could be a backup point.  If you have multiple

people shooting, then you get the determination problem :(

OK, I think I have figured out my target contribution. Let me know if the idea, number of arrows (3), and possible points (6 + 1 = 7 max) will be appropriate.

 

The target will have 12 Kells letters on it. Archers will roll a large die that has 6 four-letter Latin words on its six sides. The word they roll is the one they have to spell on the target. Archers will use 3 arrows. Scoring will be 2 points for each letter shot in sequence in their word, or 1 point for letters in their chosen word that are shot out of sequence. So for example, shooting D E S for the word DEUS would get six points (2 + 2 + 2), but shooting D S E would only get four points (2 + 1 + 1). Shooting only D E would also get four points (2 + 2). Then, IF and ONLY IF anyone hits their 3 letters in sequence, which I'm sure a handful of archers will, then they are allowed one bonus arrow to shoot at the remaining letter in their word for a possible 1 additional point.

 

in service,

 

Eirik Gralokkr

Hello everyone, I have added a few more updates to the list of helping
marshal's and target contributors. As you can see we still need a few more
targets to complete the 13 or 14 stations we are shooting for. We still also
could use some more marshal's to help during the day, so please if you think
you can help and or contribute a target, please let me know. This is the
current list so far:
