Last Saturday we did a little competition of a new sort!
All competitors had a miniaturized bow and tiny arrows but the aim was the same as other competitions: hit the targets and score points !
Bows were all hand made and of the traditional types : either longbows or recurve bows.
Ranges were 2m and 3m, ends of two arrows.

Targets were little animals with two zones: killed (10 points) or wounded (5 points). There was a total of 10 targets.

Styles were various and had more or less success:

All competitors gathered. As you see we had a lot of fun !
Thanks to Medhi, the miniaturized bow-maker, who did the rules and most of the bows and arrows (I did the targets)!
