    Traditional FSC Week 7

    Pigs in Love

    This week we'll shoot at heart-shaped snouts as a three-shot walk-up, with an arrow shot from 20 yards, then 15 yards and finally from10 yards at a center spot on each respective heart/snout. (Kiddos shoot from 15, 10 and 5 yards). Measure three arrow total distance from nearest part of shaft to its respective target spot.

    The CATCH is: if you miss the respective snout, then you must add one inch to that measure. Lowest total distance wins the call for next week.

    You can print the sample shown below that I drew or make your own. Either way, the width of the target snouts should be 3" for 20 yards, 2" for 15 yards and 1-1/2" for 10 yards.

    You can try this up to three times, as long as the three shots are the first of that day. (For those shooting on Rick's TAF, use the same shots for each forum if participating in both.)

    Rooting for each of you!! Have fun!!

    (Will add pic from phone.)

      Tip: To make the snouts/hearts the right width, I just laid a tape measure on the paper about where I wanted the snout and put two dots for the distance, then another at the midpoint for the aimpoint; then just free-handed the heart so that the outside arcs of the heart shape went through the outside dots. Orientation of the snout/hearts is totally up to you. Sizing is the main thing, due to the penalty for missing.

      Secret: the nostrils are just decoration so the hearts look like snouts in order to shoe-horn a game animal theme into a Valentine week call.

          Scan and attach the one you decide to use so others can just print and shoot.

            This is a great idea, but my IT department isn't here.

            I'll work on it. Prolly try to use the second (stacked snouts) version.

              Here's a "to scale" printable version of the target.

                  You're welcome.

                  At the very least I am worth more than tits on a boar hog.
