Solstice Silliness

To celebrate the Shortest Day, Rob devised a cruel and unusually punishing Fun Shoot. The turn-out was really good for a Sunday morning just before Christmas, and we needed nine bosses in the hall. The first event was a simple matter of getting the lowest score - except the white area was reduced to four tiny triangles, and there were Hazards in the shape of target pins that worked a bit like the 'mushrooms' in Bar Billiards. You wouldn't think it was that easy to hit a target pin, would you? Hit one and you scored 10 points, and getting an arrow outside the paper also scored ten. Arrrgh!
Longbow, Traditional, and Barebow archers (except for Doug, Rob isn't stupid) had their scores factored down to handicap the recurves, and it was Graham Skinner (Longbow) who got the lowest score of the day.
The other event was only open to instinctive archers, so a lot of the recurvers stripped off their sights and stabilisers and blasted away with the primitive folk. This time we had to spike a Bauble, and as soon as it was announced that the prizes for this feat would be Chocolate, Jane Barnes (Longbow) immediately nailed the first Bauble of the day, no problem.

Dave seemed to think it was Halloween (or if not, why the red devil's Horns?)
