2008 3DShoots 5-Spot Smack Down League

jcmorgan31 · 01-16-2008, 08:02 AM

Time to screw in the long stabilizers, sight in the scopes, nock your fat shafted arrow and hang up a paper target. Find yourself 60 feet and start flinging arrows.

It is 5-Spot Smack Down time........................

Here are some rules......

1. Have fun.
2. Scores must be shot from whatever distance you have available. 20 yard is the preferred distance.
3. Target face must be the official NFAA 5 spot target face (you can shoot all arrows at the NFAA single spot if you want)
4. Scoring will be 5 for arrows in the white, 4 in the blue (X counts as an 6)
5. We will be shooting 12 ends with a possible score of 360, 60x
6. Score line cutters for the higher score.
7. Scores must be PM'd to me by each Wednesday at midnight. 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:

30,30,30,30,30,30,30,30,30,30 60x

X's counted as 6's 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 of the sit down, 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 5 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.

Personally I could care less, but some on here try to take this too seriously. Believe me, I'd much rather shoot at my shop, but it's only 13 yards. AT has the Copper John distance shoot, and they don't care where you shoot from. It's for fun. Can't get that through the heads of some people on here.....

I really dont care, you still have to make the shot......

what ever, i will be sending in my scores after the weekend.....

bullfiddle · 01-16-2008, 10:03 AM

Can you post what a actual score would look like??? I am confused by the whole X's counting as 6 thing....say a guy shoots a 300 with 50 X's would his score be 600?....

Gator eye · 01-16-2008, 10:05 AM

I say shoot what you got...if you got 15 yards, shoot it.
It's all for fun. I would hate for someone not to shoot because they only got 12 yards to shoot....heck it'll just put alittle more pressure on the rest of us.

I vote for a rule change!!!

What is most important is the per end score. So if you shoot a 25 with 3 Xs, then submit it as a 28. Your final score doesn't really matter. You can keep your score for yourself like normal, but when you send it to me, just add the Xs to each end.

Read through that thread and it should make sense how I eliminate shooters per end......

Me too.......... This is supposed to be about getting archers to shoot regardless of their situation.

So there you have it folks. Shoot whatever distance you have. This league is for fun and I want people to shoot. I may just keep running it weekly without an end date. Does anybody really care? If we get a sponsor and a weekly prize is given, it will be by random drawing.

Now there are no excuses.....

We won't see her for days....

firechic · 01-16-2008, 02:45 PM

Can't wait to start!!! I wasn't good enough for last round!

But I do have a question...

Is it against the rules to take your best score and post it, out of a weeks worth of shooting??? Or should I just choose one day to shoot and use that one? (I only want to play fair)

Some of us consider Deliverance a "Love" story....

Bring your best. As long as you are shooting.....its all good.....

There is no such thing as "not good enough"......... posting a score and seeing where you stand is the first step in becoming a better archer. You need a starting point and a baseline to improve upon and to set goals from. Shoot those scores and get them in......
