    Traditional FSC Week 19

    Simple set up. Just need a piece of blank 8.5x11 paper, a toothpick (or small nail) and a tape measure. With paper oriented horizontally, measure a point 3 inches from one side and. 3 inches from bottom. Poke a small hole there with the toothpick or nail. This will be your aimpoint.

    Challenge is to shoot one "first shot" of a day as close as possible to the pinhole. Measure nearest part of arrow shaft to center of pinpoint. Off the paper DOUBLES measured distance. Touching paper counts as on the paper. Distance: 12 yards. Any stance. May try this once each day. HOWEVER, the last try counts as your entry.

    Shoot straight; have fun!

      3/4"
      Nevermind reusing last weeks target paper and toothpick. I just turned the block. Works fine.

      Good target Ellis!

        Wow! Excellent shot, Briar! Guess you'll be done for a while.

        BTW, I realize the picture shows a toothpick, but you're actually supposed to just poke the hole with the toothpick and then take it out LOL.

                I'm no math wiz but . . I'm pretty sure 3/8ths beats 11/16ths.
                Nice shooting Byron.

                  You're not DQd, Briar. I was only thinking you had a pretty dang good shot that you might want to let stand till someone posted a better one.

                  Regarding the toothpick: just take it out. Your shots are still fine. I don't see any advantage in it having been there.

                  Great shooting, by the way!

                      Took my best guess at target acquisition and did okay: 1/2". Still doesn't beat Briar, tho.

                              Thanks, Briar, but NOOOOO don't shoot again at this target until someone gets inside of your 3/8". Shoot all you want, but not for this challenge!

                              Just sayin'.
