Hot Spots Competition
Hot Spots
Now that the new 'Deployable Targets' have been released, there are lots of questions flying around asking "Where are the best spots to set them up?"
So this competition is very simple, we would like to see and hear from everyone about their favorite 'Hot Spots'. On top of that, if you have set up some shooting competitions, what targets are you using and what 'House Rules' are you using?
To enter the 'Hot Spot' competition, all you need to do is provide one or more screen shots of your set up and write a little about it (The shot lengths, location etc).
To enter the 'House Rules' competition, let us know your 'house rules' and how the targets are setup. It is up to you how you present this, pictures, videos or just text can be used. Maybe you want to show us your set up in real time and feel a video does it more justice?
There will be two prize categories:
Best Hot Spot Prizes:
Three winners will be selected and all get their choice of any 6 Targets and or Mats. (Winners can select which of the styles)
Best House Rules:
One lucky winner that has the most fun and innovative set of rules will receive all the Targets and Shooting Mats. On top of that, we will host the winning competition Live on Stream.
Contestants do not have to enter both competitions, for instance you might only want to enter the 'House Rules' competition.
Winners will be announced Friday the 22nd of June, which gives everyone two weeks!
Any questions, fire them in here or feel free to send me a PM!
Good luck everyone!

Re: Hot Spots Competition
Sadly all I could show anyone is flags. I have a field archery range lay out, but no archery targets for the course.

Re: Hot Spots Competition
I was working on a target comp this is what I have so far. It was not finished but I feel it is understandable enough. I was trying to work in all weapon categories while still keeping it some what challenging
Set two 150 to 250 meters plinkington or air rifle only
Set three 250 to 350 meters; Classic rifles only
Set four 400 to 450 meters any rifle
Set five Showdown 180 meters pistols (revolvers only) Top three after set four compete for the win.
No range finders during competition. Rangefinders may be used during practice time before the competition starts. If rangefinders are used during the competition either while on the mat or off that target group will be forfeit.

Re: Hot Spots Competition
Nothing amazing about the field range course, it is the standard course used for years by Bow Hunters. Usually setup with 3D targets on a modern course. Back in the day we used paper targets with animal pictures pinned to excelsior bails stacked for the back ground.TreeKiwi wrote:Not many people could pull off the amazing shots you do Tony!INTIMID883R wrote:Sadly all I could show anyone is flags.

Thanks for the compliment, but nothing amazing about my shots, all it takes is practice and patience.

Re: Hot Spots Competition
Thanks but I am using my own domain. Most of the pics I post here the images are hosted there. This is a 1st time getting this error. I was wondering if it might be a constraint placed on this specific board/thread.

Re: Hot Spots Competition
Hello
Here is my Recurve Bow Parcours in the North of Rougarou Bayou. 7 Field Target are used between 20 and 60 meters. The Range I change from time to time.
Sometimes Rangefinder is allowed, sometimes not. (The Animal Targets I don't like, because of the only one aimpoint.)
My Rules are simple:
A competition consist of 2-3 Rounds and the Player has 3 shots per Target. The maximum points are 420 for 2 Rounds and 630 for 3 Rounds. But it's very hard to catch this.
All Player must use the same Recurve and Arrow.
Target 3 at 42 m.
Target 4 at 36 m.
