ooo i want in this time. I was in the hospital all of it last year!!!
I am in
When do we start?
Matt
i think Saturday. that will give time for more to join if they want.
maybe I should have asked this earlier, but does anyone know how to make a spreadsheet like last year, and if so could they explain to me how? if not ill just keep track of scores on paper.

And how long do we have for each scenario? A week?
I take my state boards for my nursing license this Saturday and then going to a 3D shoot on Sunday :D .
I am in... Might not score too well but it looked like fun last time.
I tried a bunch of the scenarios from the last lot, added some interest to practice :)
Can i join in later im heading hunting next tuesday for a week would that be ok ?
Im in! My club is holding a tournament this Saturday so ill be able to shoot the required scenario at our range while waiting for the participants to finish.
Great idea getting this going again :thumbsup:
:thumbsup: I'M IN!
I'll shoot as much as possible but I've had some huge life changes in the last year so I don't know how much I'll be able to participate.
From my experience last year it basically runs itself. I thought about getting a trophy or some kind of "top secret" prize to the top three place but I haven't had time to get it going. Good for you to take the initiative!
im in
I am in!

thanks. I was kind of worried youd be upset about me stealing your idea. it just seemed like by this time last year we were already shooting and I wanted to get it going.
Aunty thats fine
and RN each round will last a week like last year.
awesome! looking forward to it
me and 3 boys in
Count me in. How many arrows? Or does that very each week?
I'm in :)
Sign me up!
Im in! This will be a good way to try my new 70" Hill, in some really challenging positions.
Not at all giff. :bigsmyl: :campfire:
OK guys, i thought id play with last years scenario , all went good up to the point of saving the guide by shooting off your belly. Seems he might as well go roll in gravy and dab a little A-1 behind his ears, cause he is a buffet in boots. Fellas, i think this is gonna be fun!
Im in. Lets do this!
Yep, let's make it happen.
How does it start off?
Matt
count me in. looks like fun
I'm in for sure!
I'm in.
:campfire:
I've been working on a spreadsheet. That is not a problem. The problem is getting it here.
Going to try scanning it and sizing it as a photo.
giff if someone else is taking this on let me know.
Rom
nope, your the only one i know of. thanks
OK I'll do some test runs
im in this year dont plan on scoring well, but its a FUN SHOOT!!!!!

Hey TRADGANG! :wavey: The idea was brought up earlier this week about a fun archery competition for any tradgang member. So here we go!
This is 100% HONOR SYSTEM! There will be no prizes, just a good old fashion fun shoot. Doesn't cost anything to enter you just have to let me know so I can keep a head count.
The way we're going to start this out is I pick the rules for the first week. After that the winner of the previous contest will pick the rules for the next contest and so on. After you shoot, you must take a picture and post it, along with your score, I will start the thread after every shoot. To start this off I want to have a "contest" every two weeks. I will go through and find the highest score and let that person know so they can come up with the rules. If at some point we get a lot of people (which I hope we will) I might have to pick at random who chooses the rules for the next week. I have a full time job so I couldn't keep up if a lot of people join. We are going to do this as cheap as possible.
And what I mean by "Rules" is picking yardage, shooting positions, and if we get any warm up shots.
Things you need:
9 inch Paper Plates
A quarter
A role of duck tape
A Sharpie of any color
Get a paper plate and trace the quarter in the center, then trace the MIDDLE of the role of duck tape, and then draw a line where the plate starts to angle up. (I will post a pick tonight)
Scoring systems:
Middle- 10 points
Duck tape ring- 8 points
Outer ring- 6 points
Outer edge up the plate- 4 points
You must cut the paper plate for it to count, touching but no cut= no score for that arrow.
I want to keep this "stick bow close" so nothing over the 15-20 yards please. Maybe later we can extend it out, but for now lets keep it close.
If anybody has ANY suggestions PM me and we'll talk them over. This is 100% for FUN! So post here if you want in.

OK this may be the best I can do. My scanner is not the greatest.
Ron
Very exciting! Ready to get the first shoot going.
Matt
I'll add names as they post. If you have posted and don't see your name post again, I don't plan to go through them again.
Ron
Add me too please.
Good evening;
If a few late submissions will be allowed, count me in. I'll be out of the country for about 12 days, so I'll need to make up the ones I miss.
D
I'm in, this should be fun. :thumbsup:
giff is running the show but I believe it is ok to come in late. Just add it to the current post and state what week it is for.
We are up to 29 right now
Count Me In Too!!! :scared:
I'm in, too.
Are you wanting to start this Monday giff?
Count me in as well.

I'm definitely in! :bigsmyl:

I may have over looked it, but did anyone say how many shots that you were to take?
Count me in. Sounds like a fun challenge. Cheers!

last year we did 4 most weeks, but it is up to whoever makes up the scenario that week.
Thanks giff!

Ron
Bought my plates last night :)

I will do my best to make you all look good and prop up the bottom of the scoring.
va
I'm in I guess. When will it start?
I'm in.
I would like to participate.
Would prefer to draw the circles on a piece of cardpaper/cardboard if that is okay.
Could someone please give me the diameters for the 10, 8 and 6 ring.
Thanks.
week 1 is up. latecomers are welcome. if you need to make up a week, post it on the current weeks thread, and say what week it is for
4=9 inch
6=5.25 inch
8=3 inch
10=1 inch
Thanks, giff.
Please add me to the list as well. Looks like this is gonna be a lot of fun.
Please put me in, too. I better see if I can find four arrows that match and choose a bow to shoot. :D
OK got all these on the list.
ANY NEW SIGN UPS SHOULD BE DONE ON THE
FUN SHOOT WK 1 Post
Haven't had the opportunity to shoot yet, been raining like crazy down here in South Florida but as soon as it clears up I'll do some make-up shots :)
