I would like to ask for your opinion. The heavy marshal and seneschal for Rosenfeld have thrown out a suggestion for 3 Kings this year and I'm not certain that I can back this one up. I'm new at this and tend to lean in the "over-safe" direction. Your help and advice would be appreciated.<BR>
<BR>
It has been proposed that a "cart scenario" be set up to challenge the archers. The basic task is to shoot from a moving hay cart at assorted targets. This information is sketchy at the moment but I'm seeing a wagon of some sort with a seat or rail. The cart would be pulled and the archer must shoot at assorted targets. <BR>
<BR>
My concern is the bumping and jostling issue. Could this cause misfires with the arrow/bolt going in whatever direction? What kind of safety zone will be required? Seated, standing or you choose? How do I keep the person pulling the cart out of the danger zone?<BR>
<BR>
Again, this is very much in the planning stages. I am seeking your wisdom to see ifthis idea is even possible and can be performed safely. I look forward to your suggestions and advice.<BR>
