<font color='black' size='3' face='Comic Sans MS, sans-serif'>Another idea would be for all the archery to enter a drawing for a bow or two. Little different than we've done in the past. Other prizes can be bow socks, which are easily made, inexpensive and highly appreciated (you'll see some at SAAD). You can give out a while lot more bowsocks than bows. How about string wax, or a "gift certificate" from other merchants at Pennsic.

<div>I like the idea of the ElkRidge bow to a marksman or lower archer. Most more accomplished archers already have a great bow or two. Has there been thought of awarding prizes to categories of archers based on either total scores or a mystery station? The thought is that all archers are placed in groups based on the day's score then the top three in each group get awards. This way expert shoot against expert and novice shoot against novice. But more importantly newer, less skilled archers win prizes. That advertising justifies the effort.</div>
