It might be good to go over your target dimensions one more time Please. never mind I got it on page one

10= quarter size (unless ur from oz)
8= 3" ring
6= 5 1/4 ring
4= the rest of the nine inch plate

Cuts only no leaners....

Good luck to the crowd....

Thanks Mike!

OK I'll be first to post.

My Grandfathers 69' Bear Grizzly 56" 50# @ 28" & Gold Tip Trad 35/55's.
That was pretty tough since I don't normally shoot like that.

16 total score.

By the way Snakebite I like your sig line... :D

Great first challenge! I only have two 125gr field points so I have two pics. This is with the Samick. Loving this bow.

First two after 3 warm-ups (glad I took my warm-ups turned around):

Second two:

If cut line is higher score, put me at 32. (Thanks, Snakebit)

Good fun!
Rusty

If it cuts the line you get the better score! Nice shooting guys! I'll post my tomorrow hopefully!

Thanks,
Don

Look at a post above for the dia. of the circles. I believe it is a 9" plate, and the less technical circle sizes are the natural circle line in the plate just inside the fold pattern, inside of a roll of duct tape, and a quarter. Someone correct me if I am wrong. About the circles that is. :D

I have a question. How long is a step? Are we talking yards?

Eugene Slagle · May 30, 2011, 08:01:00 AM

12 steps for me is just past 10 yards.

centaur · May 30, 2011, 08:47:00 AM

28 on a rainy morning with my new Big Jim TC.

saumensch · May 30, 2011, 09:02:00 AM

I had to make 2 x 2 arrows, too. As im still tuning these and only got two fletched ones for now.

43@30" LB with Powerflight 500 and 225 up front.

30 points on my indoor range(12 yards) a few minutes ago;

BCWV · May 30, 2011, 09:30:00 AM

26 points. Thanks for letting me play with you all!

Mike Most · May 30, 2011, 10:11:00 AM

big 10, tough on old guys having to twist around a bit 180 degrees.....

JohnnyWayne · May 30, 2011, 10:13:00 AM

Welp, here's mine, not too good but leaves room for a massive come-back on round 2 :D

Picture is click-able for the full size shot

If cuts count for the inside ring I guess I got 24. Shot with a #47 Bob Lee longbow

Friend · May 30, 2011, 10:29:00 AM

My score was much better using my Big Jim 'Big 3's'.

don s · May 30, 2011, 11:55:00 AM

thats the first time i ever shot in that position. it's tough, and i'm fighting a habit of dropping my bow arm. 10 points for me. don

BrianC · May 30, 2011, 01:20:00 PM

Here's my target from today. 24 points, not a bad way to start I guess.

I hope everyone enjoys Memorial Day and take some time to honor the men and women who have sacraficed so much for the rest of us.

moththerlode · May 30, 2011, 01:43:00 PM

12 feet or 12 yards ?

Rusty Snuffers · May 30, 2011, 01:52:00 PM

I took 12 normal steps, putting me around 28-30 feet from my target.
