ARCH - Bryn Gwlad Archery Tournament...

[Bob Dewart]

This is all target point stuff right?  Or will we need combat type arrows
for any of it?

>The Barony of Bryn Gwlad shall be hosting two archery tournaments to
>determine their Baronial Archery Champion. This Archery Champion shall be
>choosen from the Champion of the Nobles and the Champion of the Peasants
>on the 28th day of October.
>
>These two tournaments are open to one and all members of the populace
>since the Barony feels it is up to each individual to decide if they are
>a Noble or a Peasant on this day. If an individual feels able, they may
>shoot in both competitions but may only win one of them.
>
>The morning shoot, which will occur immediately following opening court,
>shall be a Royal Round befitting those of Noble nature. This shoot
>consists of 6 arrows at 40, 30 and 20 yards. There is also a "speed"
>round at 20 yards which will allow the archer to shoot as many arrows as
>possible until the time keeper tells them to lie their bow down. The
>highest score shall determine the Champion of the Nobles.
>
>The afternoon shoot, which will occur immediately following the ending
>of the tournaments or at 5:30 - whichever time is earlier, shall be a
string
>shoot. Archers will shoot 6 arrows and the shortest distance around them
>will determine the Champion of the Peasants. If there is enough time, this
>shoot will be done pairing archers against each other in a head-to-head
>style competition.
>
>After the Peasants have determined their Champion, the two Champions will
>shoot off to determine the Baronial Archery Champion. The particular style
>of this shoot will not be announced in advance, but shall be a head-to-head
>competition.
>
>Prizes for this competition are still coming in, but rumor has it there
>shall be a quiver and a dozen arrows for each of the two Champions, and
>a peg-style crossbow with a dozen bolts for the Baronial Champion. This
>is in addition to the hand-down prizes that the Baronial Champion holds
>during his tenure.
>
>If you have any questions at all or wish to donate prizes, feel free to
>contact Master Phelim Gervase called Pug to the common man. Please feel
>free to share this missive with any who you feel would like to join in
>on our competition.
