Correct, for this shoot we are counting arrows to complete a challenge, so the LOWEST score will win the challenge between the two archers.<br><br>Jonathas<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Mar 18, 2011 at 2:02 PM, Steve Lackey <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:edeconde@gmail.com">edeconde@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

This is kind of new to me, so I want to make sure I'm not screwing up my expectations =)<div>

If I hit my mark with the first 2 arrows each time in the first 3 rounds, that would be 6 (H,O,R)? </div><div><br></div><div>Then say in the timed round, I double shot the first set arrows, and the next two singly for the back to back in 12 seconds, that would add 1(S), for 7 total?</div>

It does take 20 arrows, which is more than most archers have on hand.<br>

<br>As the archer was loading their last arrow they announced "last arrow" so that as soon as that arrow was released the time keeper could stop the clock. Their arrows would be retrieved and the archer would take position as if they had just released the last arrow (ie bow held up but not drawn back, hand at their anchor point, no arrow on the string. for crossbows a similar setup, held up but not cocked or loaded), the time keeper would simply say "Go" as they restart the clock, and then the archer continues as normal.<br>
<br>I did make sure that the archers had enough arrows to possibly complete the challenge (12 or more arrows), and be sure that they would only stop at most once.<br><br>We have not been announcing the time as it runs.<br>
