Default Crossbow Hunting Practice Challenge

I came up with a game for myself to practice for hunting. I set up a 9" round piece of cardboard on the target with a dot in the middle to aim at and shoot from 30 yds, then 15, then 25, then 20. Then I shoot those four shots again 2 more times. 12 shots total per round, all offhand. I usually just shoot 1 or 2 rounds per day. I figure that all shots hitting the 9" target are kill shots on a deer. I record the date I shot each round andmisses (off the 9" cardboard) for that round. So far I've shot 12 rounds (120 shots)with 1 miss. I'd like to see how few misses I can have for 1000 shots with my crossbow. Does anyoneelse want to take the challenge? 1000 shots at varying distances from 15-30 yds. all offhand. I don't care what order the shots are taken as long as you mix it up (ie. don't shoot all 3 shots from 30 yds at once). That will keep it better practice for hunting. Who wants totry?
