[Ansteorra-archery] Archery at Stargate Baronial, Sept. 8

[Eadric Anstapa]

Greetings to the Archers of Ansteorra.

On Sept. 8 a new Archery Champion shall be chosen for the Barony of the
Stargate. The tournament promises to be challenging for the archers and
exciting for spectators.

The tournament will be a head-to-head standard double elimination list.
Each round will have a different format.

Round 1     Target
    Archers will shoot an end of 6 arrows at a 60cm "period" 3-color target
face.

Round 2     Combat
     Archers will shoot an end of 6 arrows at an IKCAC style man shaped
target.  Ansteorran legal combat arrows must be used (this means with APDs).
Archers do not have to use a combat legal bow and the only armor required
will be protection for the bow hand.  Some combat arrows will be available
for loan.

Round 3     Hunt
     Archers will shoot an end of 6 arrows at animal targets

Round 4     Speed
     Archers will have 30 seconds to shoot as many arrows as possible at a
standard 60cm 5-color  FITA target.

Rounds 5+   The current Stargate Archery Champion or Their Excellencies
Stargate will choose formats that  they believe are the best possible tests
for the remaining archers.

I hope to see you all there competing for the honor of being the next
Archery Champion for the Barony of the Stargate.

Tentative plans are underway for a candle shoot later in the evening after
feast and court.

In Service,

Lord Eadric Anstapa
Coastal Regional Archery Marshal, Ansteorra
