ARCHER'S DUEL: A one on one tournament to chose the Southern Region's
Archery Champion.  *It's only open to residents of the Southern Region.*
Archer's using Ansteorran combat legal bow/crossbow and Ansteorran combat
legal arrows/bolts engages at a distance a man size silhouette which
represents their opponent who is standing next to them.  Armor may be worn;
however, is not required.  Archers are encouraged to bring their own
equipment.  A limited amount of loaner gear will be available.  Held at the
Combat Archery Range.

CHILDREN'S SHOOT: Children accompanied by a parent or MOC will be given
basic safety instructions and allowed to at man size silhouettes using
Ansteorran legal combat arrows.  There will be two divisions; youth and
child.   Archers are encouraged to bring their own equipment.  A limited
amount of loaner gear will be available.  Held at the Combat Archery Range.
Open to all children accompanied by a parent or MOC.

STRING SHOOT:  A prize tourney.  *Each archer must bring a prize to enter
the list.*  This prize should be something the archer wouldn't mind getting
him/herself.  The prize could be a roll of duct tape, bow wax, six-pack,
*almost* anything will do.
    Archers will shoot six target arrows at the 20 yard target.  The arrows
may hit anywhere on the target.  A string will be wrapped around the arrows.
The archer with the shortest string ( tightest shot group) wins.  Depending
on the number of archers there may be more than one round to the list.  No
poundage limitations.  However, blow throughs and fall outs will count as a
miss.  Archers are encouraged to bring their own equipment.  A limited
amount of loaner gear will be available.  Held at the Target Archery Range.
Open to all.

COMBAT ARCHERY GOLF:  Using Ansteorran combat legal bow/crossbow and
Ansteorran combat legal arrows/bolts, the archers will play a round of Golf.
The object is to, while avoiding the various "hazards", get your arrow  in
all the *holes* in the fewest shots.  Some holes will be shot off handed.
Archers are encouraged to bring their own equipment.  A limited amount of
loaner gear will be available.  Open to all.  Will start at the combat range
and will go to....who knows?

OPEN SHOOTING/SCORE:  This is the first weekend of the new season.  IKAC and
IKCAC ranges will be open  for practice and score during these times and
possibly others if a Marshal is available.  Archers are encouraged to bring
their own equipment.  A limited amount of loaner gear will be available.
Open to all.
