Hey all, <br><br>Don't forget this isn't a typical "points" shoot where you get points for hitting something crazy small, rather it is a "challenge" shoot where you count the number of arrows it takes you to complete a task.<br>
<br>For example: How many arrows does it take you to knock over a soda can.<br>Or using the "Default Challenge" mentioned in the rules: How many arrows does it take you to hit the 60cm target two times (Archers get to shoot the 1-9 rings, Marksmen get the 1-7 rings, Bowmen get the 1-5 rings, BE get the 1-3 rings, GBE get the 1 ring, and Novices get the entire sheet of paper)<br>
<br>Complete the challenge three times as an untimed end H-O-R <br><br>Now with someone running the clock complete the challenge twice in a row, the S is the tens digit of how long it took you, and the E is again how many arrows it took you.<br>
<br>So no "points" needed, just try to hit/do something difficult for your skill level, and you have to do it better then someone else.<br><br><br>Borrowing from Marco's email a challenge might be:<br><br>At 15 yards, a 5" foam ball hanging on a 24" string, hit it two times.<br>
<br>The first three letters might be done in two arrows each, if you wait long enough between shots. But for the last two letters you would need to hit the ball four times (completing the challenge twice) in as little time as possible.<br>
<br><br>Now anyone want to take up That challenge?<br><br>:D <br>Jonathas<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Mar 1, 2011 at 1:35 PM, <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:loreleielkins@aol.com">loreleielkins@aol.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
