Title: D-R-A-G-O-N =Family archery fun!
Post by: Bard1 on August 25, 2008, 10:38:00 PM
Hey ya'll!  
Just got in from shooting in our new backyard with the whole family!  We had a lot of fun.  As I was getting thins set up, I was thinking of was to make shooting a bit more fun then just stand/shoot/rotate/rinse wash repeat.  So I remembered the old basket ball game of H-O-R-S-E, and decided to apply it to archery!  I chose the word DRAGON because Marissa my fiance`'s 11 year old LOVES dragons and all things dragon.  It was a total blast!  They loved it and we had lots of laughter!  They can't wait to do it again and are already talking about it!

I am sure I am not the first person to think of this, but for those of you with archery families, give it a try if you haven't already!

My bowhunting buddies and I have enjoyed this same game for many years but we call the game B-O-W-H-U-N-T-E-R. It lasts a little longer than HORSE.

I do it with my 10-year old brother, Andrew. He usually does pretty well for himself, too...

I have played this with my son.  We play A-R-R-O-W.  We shoot a 3D target and use the scoring rings.  I let him go first and I shoot from twice as far as he does.  He's only 11.
