Default Think about it
Not to long ago a 10 was the best you could score on a 3d target and if you shot a 10 you were so happy.Then someone came up with this little 12 ring and took our 10 ring happiness away.Now we have this 14 ring stuck in a corner far away from our happy ring.Is it possible these little circles are taking away our happiness of shooting?
THINK ABOUT IT

Talking Here's what I think !
Here in the " Tall Corn State " , at least at my local club , we call it a 11 and those extra odd ball rings outside the 10 ring are used for the shooter to announce his spot , such to avoid Robin Hooding another archers arrow , as a miss may mean a 5 and worth only 11 points !

I still shoot with 10 ring happiness. The other spots are just blemishes in the manufacturing process. (IMO)

Heck, I'm happy if I just HIT THE DANG THING at all. lol
Seriously, I tore up my back and shoulders a few years back and had to put the bows away for a while. Doc told me to forget about using them again, but I am doing okay if I stay around 45 to 55 lbs.
