getting a score at all is the actual achievement. Shame only places 1-3 get a trophy this time...

You got that right! It's it's a ton of work for $100 to win so obviously we don't do it for the money - Why do we climb a mountain that's easy enough to go around? because it's there ... it's been a great challenge.

Need some advice, please. Where the heck do I have to hit a Roo to get instant kill. Just got done chasing them all over BRR, everything was "body" or "intestines". Tried one in the head, said I hit head and one lung. Damn thing ran all the way to Milwaukee. Man, they just won't stand still for a shot..and hard to sneak up on. This is going to prevent me from posting a score. Very frustrating.

from the back when it is standing and looking around shoot for the spine between the shoulder blades but a bit lower thy do not keep there heads up long so be quick.

from the front when there head is down you could go for the head or just above the head into the top of the neck the arrow should get a bunch of organs. and I am sure you know where to shoot it broad side. but getting them there is another adventure.

You need patience & luck.

General tips:
Get close to a male - they will stand still over a longer period of time then females.
You will need to crawl-crouch-crawl quite a bit to get close.
Use scent remover. Clothes don't seem to matter though.
Either go for the brain/neck from behind or random multiple organs. The latter was the case with my roo. Followed him up a hill where he roamed around. Suddenly he turned towards me, head low towards the ground. I placed the bolt in the middle of the body piercing several organs in the process.

Hope that was any help.

I agree to both of you - actually getting a score on the board, is a HUGE achievement...and i finally got a score in the master league - a couple of places under Len and like Len says, it's a ton of work...so yeah, not for the prices, the are to small, but for honor Grats to everyone that got to scoreboard. Well, i'm off again - maybe i can do better on the scoreboard

Thanks for all the tips, I appreciate it. One more. Take a look at this one. 30 meters. Right in the middle of the chest. "Body" aaaarrrrgggh! Too high? Too low? Reminds me of excaliber73 trying to get a heart shot on a Reindeer. I have 6 or 7 like that one.

to me it looks like a bit high and a bit to far to the right

Too far to the right.

I'm SICK. I just read that the competition is any crossbow. I've bled out hours and hours of my life doing this competition, wondering why my kills don't count... going back and checking that they're all 90%+. I'm so mad I could spit! SPIT. This is my first crossmania, of course. I suppose anyone but a dope can tell by the name that you have to have purchased a crossbow, which I haven't, to be in the competition. KUDOS to the genius who did not highlight the crossbow requirement in the completion explanation. The lessons that hurt most in learning them are the ones I remember the longest.

Score is crap though, somehow I always f...ed it up with the males. So some of my scores are female only (example: my Wild boar scored 200 something... ).

Wraped this whole thing up with a nice 1029 Wild Boar at the end which I chased through Hirschfelden for over an hour... Got over 9000 with that, but now I'm done. Congrats to all you freaks for pulling it off to get a score, especially the masters league guys.

Good luck for the remaining few hours. Long live the crossbow! And tomorrow some certain Kangaroos on Busharngers gonna have a date with my 300 rifle!
