QSA had a great idea in starting this league up. I will do my best to run it fairly and more importantly funly (if that is a word....). There will be a few rules so here we go.

1. Have fun.
2. Scores must be shot from 20 yards.
3. Target face must be the official "Vegas" 3 spot target face.
4. Scoring will be 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6 (an X counts as an 11)
5. We will be shooting 10 ends with a posible score of 300, 30x
6. Score linecutters for the higher score.
7. Scores must be PM'd to me by each Monday at midnight edt. You can shoot the score anytime before that. Once you submit a score, that is the one that counts. No submitting a better score later on.
8. Be honest. This is for everyone's benefit. You will not improve as an archer if you cheat yourself.
9. Have fun.

PM me the scores in the following format:

33,33,33,33,33,33,33,33,33,33 30x

This will help with tie breakers and scoring. I will keep track of X counts also and maybe we can have a prize for the largest X count at the end. Depending on the number of shooters, I will sit down one or several shooters each end. At the end, points will be assigned by finishing position. The top 10 shooters will receive points. 10 points for 1st place, 9 for second, 8 for 3rd, etc. These points will be used to keep track of the standings through the 4 weeks.

If I have forgotten anything, please let me know. Please keep this thread on topic so I don't have to wade through a bunch of nonsense. Each week, I will start a new thread with the date on it so we can find them easier. If Chris can make this thread a sticky, I will keep track of the running scores here.

Im in, But I am all out of 3 spot faces:doh:

Next week.:biggrin1:

How long do we want to go? Do we want to give points for the top 10 or top 5? The top 5 would keep everyone closer....

I will take a shot at it.. no pun intended.

Here were my scores.

30xxx

I'm sure they are drooling at the thought as we speak.

I will donate a dozen customized wraps to the winner each week. I would like a grand prize for the overall winner, a prize for the x count champ, and a 2nd or 3rd place prize would be awesome also.

If anyone else would like to donate. You can post here or send me a PM.

Thanks for your offer Jim, very generous of you...:biggrin1:

24 inch flat black powder coat w/weights....:biggrin1: :biggrin1:

I'm in but have no targets and w/ the R100 this week I doubt I'll get my shooting in this week...

Just to confirm can someone give me a link to the targets we are shooting?

Here is a link to the targets at Lancasters.

http://www.lancasterarchery.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=53_250&products_id=1359&osCsid=809a6e4ce9257eabd3335b40d8e8c4a0


Here is a picture of the target we will be using.

we need one more rule for this to keep it far. Where I shot we can shoot up until 7 o'clock thats when it starts then we have 2 practice rounds the we start scoring. So we can shoot as much as we want for practice, But each person needs to pick a time and date that is good for them. We do not need to no when it is. That is when to set up the target, shoot 2 rounds to deal in your bow, shoot 2 practice rounds then shoot for score. That is the score you post.
Because I was thinking what would keep me from shooting all day Saturday and Sunday and picking my best score to post. I am learning my new bow, but I could get out my other target bow out and shoot for 2 days and come up with some where in the 290s with a high X count.
S I hope you see my point. this way it is like a Vegas shot, pick your day, shoot and post that score. That way no one keeps trying to up there self. But practice all you want.
What do you all think? Am I right or wrong, because I am new to this.

Dan has a good point here. What it is going to come down to is honesty. Everyone needs to be honest. There is really no way to police this on the internet. What everyone needs to ask themselves is this; "Is it really worth my integrity to cheat to win a dozen wraps or whatever else might be given as a prize?" Personally, I hold my integrity as my most important asset. This shoot is about having fun, building friendships, improving as archers, and talking a little smack. I spoke to Dan tonight on the phone and he has some good ideas about how to grow this deal and keep it going. This is all going to depend on everyones honesty and how we enjoy ourselves. All I can ask is that everyone treat this as if they were surrounded by fellow archers. Shoot a couple practice ends, tell yourself the next end is for all the marbles, and post the score you shoot.

If anyone else has any ideas on this, please share....

marbles!! woo hoo how is give away marbles? I need to win now. Everyone says I lost mine so I need some more.

Well if I played, you know I would be honest by my bad scores :doh:

I'm in, but one question.......if you shoot 10 ends and have a possible of 33pts per end then the possible total would be 330pts, right.:noidea:

I have one score turned in already. Keep them coming. I would have posted mine but ran out of pencil eraser....:noidea:

I'm in, but one question.......if you shoot 10 ends and have a possible of 33pts per end then the possible total would be 330pts, right.:noidea:

Yes. For our purposes, there is 330 possible. In the real world, "X"s are still only worth 10 and therefore it is a 300 round. I am making them worth 11 to make the scoring and elimination easier. There will be a lot of 30s shot, but not so many 33's....:peace:

Never tried it before....I'm in of course ....:biggrin1:

Need targets fast!!!

Going to shoot mine tonight.

Going to shoot mine tonight.

I may have to break out the Ovation that no one wants to buy. My Scepter had a cut strand in the string to go along with the cut serving...:mad:

OUCH!!!!!!!!! Hey lets keep those punches up.:doh:

prizes equals cheating.....

Cheating for a $12 set of wraps is pathetic. Cheating for a T-shirt is pathetic. Cheating is pathetic. We have not announced what all prizes there may be and how they will be given out. Being that this is a per end, sit down type deal, unless you write 33s all the way across, you aren't gonna know which end to cheat on....

Unless you are giving one out for worst score, I don't think I am gonna win....but I did have 1 32 2x end!

Will I am still having trouble with that last X.

No fear here.. I sent in my scores yesterday then went to the pro-shop and ordered new wraps.:Cry:

3 spot is a little harder the 5 spot lol. I only shoot 3 spot. I have never shoot a full round of 5 spot.

OK no more SMACK,
because Blue is BACK,
So don't have a heart ATTACk,
it will feel like being hit with a SACK,
because when I shoot it I just have the NACK,
You may as well hange your bow in the RACK,
and all you will have to do is set down and lean BACK,
because I can talk
SMACK

I can't find the way we are supposed to score this, so I need some help.

My first to shoots were out of the Xring, but almost touching it, and the rest were X rings. So how do I score this. This is the first time I have shot 3 spot. I know how to do 5 spot, but the Vegas targets are different.

You must be touching the line to take the higher score...

I didn't know we were shooting for boobs:doh:

If were shooting for boobs, I want to change my score!:biggrin1:

Well, I made the 20 mile round trip to the bow club this morning with the "For Sale" Ovation in the truck. I stuck a peep in it and tried to sight the thing in. It is amazing how fast you lose the feel for a bow when you start shooting another with an extremely different grip......

Long story short....I forgot my serving material to serve the peep in and it kept sliding down. Sooo.....I did what I could to get a score in......:doh:

Keep those scores coming in. I'm still missing several.....:noidea:

You must be touching the line to take the higher score...


I understand the target scoring, but I thought we were counting X rings as a point or something.

Is there any chance we will be doing a 5 spot tournament this fall?

Oh yeah, sence I beat the smack master I think I'll post up.:peace:
31,29,29,31,31--31,30,31,30,32---11X

O yes but wait. If I am still in it. I am about to take old blue outside now. Man there is some good scores here. Let see more, I may have to shoot my next score alone. It makes it easyer then have 25 others shooting at the same time. Any way I will hange up the Hoyt to learn after this is over.

I understand the target scoring, but I thought we were counting X rings as a point or something.

Is there any chance we will be doing a 5 spot tournament this fall?

"X"s count as 11. So if you shoot a 30 with 2 "X"s, then add 2. You shot a 32.

So I have to ask. Am I going to be protested if I shoot my blue bow? I started with my new pro elite that I am still learning. Here is what happened today when I shot the bow tech
Dimes size black dots. I still need to fine tune the scope. Have not shoot it in about 1 and a half months. Alittle off on a few.

thats acctually your group from ten yards you just, made little black dots were the arrows hit:laugh: :laugh:

Ok so that means I can use the bowtech next week if I am still in it right.
So what you need to ask your self is did he shoot to stay in the middle of the pack? Just to lay the whopping' on you the next go around

I don't care what bow you use. That was not in the rules. I used my Ovation out of necessity today. The darned thing better be sold by next time and I'll be using my Scepter IV....:rockon:

First we all have to first agree that a cross bow is actually a "bow". You know those threads never end.....


If no one else posts a score.....I know who won!!!!:rockon:

Not me lol and if shipping was not so much I would send you my S3 to use.
To use a crossbow you will have to step back to 40 yards and use no scope and cut the vanes off the bolts and shoot in a cross wind at 3am in the morning. lol

So from what I read SinGin you shoot from 20 Yards? If so then my hat is off to you. You shot 30 each round for a 300 not counting X's right? If so then great jod. That is very good shooting. I have only seen 3 people do it in the 1.5 years I have been shooting indoors.

It doesn't look like I'm the only one who shot that well, you might want to check the scores I'm not winning the $12.00 wraps. What exactly are you saying? Wait until next week when I break out the target bow. If you want to come over I'll give you one and only one free lession:peace:

Just saying what I said. 20 yard 30 each round is killer shooting and learn how to keep some praise ok.lol

You mean we were supposed to use compounds for this contest? :doh:

Man you can throw the arrow for all I care. Just post your score. lol

So is everyone shooting from 20 yards? I think I am going to try 10 yards with scale targets to see what happens. Not for score, just for fun. Where was the sight with the program?

I thought the rules were everyone shoots from 20 yards?

JIM

I do not know? But just doing it for kicks. The way I see it if you shoot a scale target, then you should scale every thing else. Bow ,Arrows, DW. If not the scale at 10 yards with my 2613, then at 20 yards I am shooting logs lol. Just getting use to the Bowtech again.

Rule # 2 on the first post of this thread states everyone must shoot from 20 yards....:rockon:

All my scores I post will be 20 yards. I just started thinking, and that may have been where I went wrong lol.

oopsss.......I shot my vegas target from 40 yds geeezzzzzzzzzzz itll be alot easier this week:mad:
