Challenging for sure, and as jbowersox mentions zeros,
they don't add up too fast, and, Iknow I"ll certainly have a few!
It will add a different twist from the last league. Hope participation
is a little better this time !!

Hey Hmthrfan, if you don't mind I'll put a post on the forum encouraging guys to sign up. Shooting in these things is great practice and lots of guys can benefit from it.

5 arrows per end means that you shoot 5 arrows at a time. 2 ends per distance means you shoot two 5 arrow groups at 20 yards, at 30 yards and 40 yards. 6 ends per round means you shoot a grand total of six 5 arrow groups.

The scoring goes like this. Their are basically 4 scoring rings in the target. 5x is the innermost circle...the bullseye, 5 is the next, 4 is the next, and then 3. Shoot your 5 arrows add up your number score and the number of x's. For example, I shoot five arrows that score like this 4, 5, 5x, 4, 5x....My score is 23- 2x. The x's are used as a tiebreaker, so if someone else shoots 23-3x, they scored higher.

Hope that helps.

So, is 7/13 when the first week's scores need to be posted or will they be posted on 7/20?

Not much action on the sign-up page. I thought more people would be interested.

This is definitly tougher than the 3 spot. I did throw two
arrows away but they were just out. I might come in last again,
but this is making me shoot more at longer yardages and I do feel I am
improving there. I really only hunt, so shots are not longer than 20 yds. or so,
but this is making me feel more confidant at 30-40 yds. Even a shot just barely outside
the 3 ring would be a good shot on a deer. This is FUN !!
