Traditional FSC Week 32 of 2022

[tradtiger]

Inspired by Trumpkin's "In honor of" thread. Specifically, I like the peace he found in the woods, hunting for a pig or small game. So let's get ready to hit some small game up close.

Just need the center cylinder from a roll of paper towels or toilet paper. If from paper towels, cut it in half. Figure out a way to attach it to your target block, as shown in the picture below. Try and get the cylinder about a foot off the ground like small game might be.

Challenge is to be first to shoot inside the cylinder with an arrow TWICE.

Shoot first two shots of a day SITTING or KNEELING (1 or 2 knees) at cylinder. Distance: 10 yards (6 for kiddos).Up to four days' shots allowed (not required).

The two shots in the cylinder do not have to occur on the same day -- might get one in on Day 1 and one in on Day 3, or both on a single day.

Tie-breaker is first person to post having the second arrow in cylinder, regardless of which shooting "day" it is for you. Since I already have everything ready, I won't shoot before 6 pm today (Sunday).

Aim small miss small. Good luck all, and have fun!

Briar Jr1 Day 1: miss
He gets string thwacked by 3 under and is switching back to split finger. His anchor seems to be getting repeatable though. We have previously discussed three points of contact for his anchor and I think short of annoying him with blind baleing…he is getting close…er…one shot a day. I got him to consciously go to an after shot second anchor though goofily I suggested his ear and he already primarily anchors darn close….imagine palm to temple. He tried to incorporate the second anchor after the second shot….”by waving to the queen” then sticking his finger in his ear hole. I found it humorous and worth sharing.

Ive got to instill the second anchor is critical to follow through and overall shot cycle.

Day one, no photos. My lower back is all jacked up and didn't like me kneeling down to shoot. Just under/ just over for my two arrows.

Day 2

Back still jacked up... broke out the sissy bow. First shot was a fletching 12, but just outside. Second one a bit higher.
