    Default 5 spot target and Vegas face

    ok so many of you want to know what a 5 spot looks like . 5 spots are shot with 2 warm up ends consisting of 5 shots each and a total of 12 more ends or 60 shots for the scoring .

    [image][/image]


    heres the Vegas face it is shot with 2 practice ends of 3 arrows each end. then either 10 ends or 15 ends of scoring . depending on what your shooting a 300 or 450 round.

    JB-

    Just use the nails with the plastic "washers" used to hold tar paper on roofs. Cheap and they work great!

    you can use number 9 wire for targets pegs..or swipe some from the local indoor shop !!!

    the X ring on a five spot is aboutthe same size as the 10 ring on the Vegas face.. now the vegas face has the baby X in the middle ...
    the size of the X ring on a 5 spot is 1 5/8ths outside to outside...the vegas 10 ring is 1 9/16ths OD.....i measured them both and they are very close to each other...

    900 Easy ? yea right

    yea you got that right JB about that darn 900 vegas shoot off... its only done for the drama of the tourny...

    its kind of sad to see a guy shoot lights out in X count like Reo did last year and then go out in the first round of the shootoff....

    cant figure out why a guy has to win tourny twice in one weekend just because someone wants drama... oh yea ASA and IBO do the same thing ...

    How many shots do you have to shoot in a row and approximately how much time in between sessions? Or is it set up different than that? Never even seen archery tourney.

    for 5 spots you have 10 practice shots . they are shot in 5 shot ends .. the time you have is 4 mins to make 5 shots... then you shoot 4 ends to complete 1 round.. at the end of 6 ends ( known as half way ) you switch your target from the top to the bottom or vice versa...
    then you repeat the shooting routine for 6 more ends..

    total arrows is 60 for scoring and 10 for practice.. max score is 300 60 X....

    for the Vegas round its about the same except you have 2:30 seconds for 3 arrows . 2 practice ends at the start both consisting of 3 arrows each.. then you start your round.. you shoot 5 ends and then switch targets from top to bottom and bottom to top.like 5 spots.. max score is 300 30 X..

    indoor spots is all mental game and shooting form .. even though its only 20 yards , its extremely tough to stand and duplicate 60 shots in a row the exact same..

    ive made some editing to the original post .. for some reasonthe pics wouldnt comre up . now you all can see them again..

    I posted a topic about the 5 spot target and I would like to know the diameter of each ring individually in the vegas target.
