Print, or draw to scale the image on an 8.5 X 11 inch standard paper.
The dots are 1/16" diameter.

Take your shots from 15 yards (7.5 for the kiddos).

Only one shot per day, and must be first shot of day.
It's 5 shots total, but you have 7 days to get them done.

You are shooting at:

1st shot - The dot in the "right" letter "p" in Happy
2nd shot - The dot in the number "9" of 2019
3rd shot - The dot in the number "0" of 2019
4th shot - The dot in the "left" letter "p" in Happy
5th shot - The dot in the number "2" of 2019

Measure from edge of shaft to edge of dot for each day.

Lowest total for the 5 shots wins the call for next week.

Shoot Straight! Have Fun!

Happy New Year !!!!

Nice shot, Reb!

tradtiger · 12-31-2018, 12:24 PM

First shot in about a week might as well hit number 1: that's 4-11/16" down and in to a righty batter.

Well, Tradtiger and I are running neck and neck, then Briar found his ruler.

Nice shot Briar.

Briar Friar · 01-03-2019, 01:31 PM

Thanks and good shootin Yall!

I wanked todays shot...big time...held too long and got wobbly.
Day 3: 5 1/4”

DRT · 01-03-2019, 02:38 PM

One of the hardest things to do is let down, take a breath or two and reset. When hunting you often have to buy on a target it seems tougher. Most often though it makes for a better result.

Gary

tradtiger · 01-03-2019, 06:40 PM

A little less low, shooting at the lefthand "p" on Day 4: 1"

Day 1: 4-11/16"
Day 2: 2-1/8"
Day 3: 2-3/16"
Day 4: 1"
Total, so far: 10"

Funny that you mention this, Gary. I actually force myself to let down at least twice on these FSC shots just to make sure I don't rush and to try and feel my anchor points prior to the actual shot.

Nice shots Gentlemen

. I'm out for the week

RickBarbee · 01-05-2019, 11:45 AM

Still several hours left to shoot.

Y'all do me a favor, and tally/post your own total measurements.
My old eyes aren't what they used to be, and my math sucks.

Rick

Briar Friar · 01-05-2019, 10:16 PM

Day 5: 4 3/4”

Which totals...uncannily... 14 15/16”.

...unless my arith metic is awry.

RickBarbee · 01-05-2019, 11:35 PM

Looks like the ferocious tradtiger wins the call for next week.

Calls us a good one Ellis.

Rick

tradtiger · 01-06-2019, 12:02 AM

Thanks, Rick. Some good shooting by all in bad conditions this week. I'll put on my thinking cap for a new challenge!
