These kinda “3d” archery shoots were so much fun.
One optional /bonus target at the end had a steel plate with a T-Rex painted on it, and a narrow hole in the middle to shoot through… And beside it was a graveyard hay bale full of obliterated arrows of those that tried. (Don’t touch shattered carbon fiber, kids!)
One required a kneeling shot and through a large PVC tube to hit a turkey target at the end…I kid you not, I used a bent aluminum arrow, it bounced off the wall of the tube, and right into the bullseye. Sadly this was well before reliable pocket video but I did get a picture of the resulting shot with my Palm Zire 71! …I wonder if I still have that picture now somewhere…
It was really cool seeing people shooting with everything from modern recurves, to compound bows (my flavor), to very fine “primitive” bows.
Archery though. Love it. Really fun sport. Great people, lots of skill. I was taught by an olympic coach but enjoyed the more practical “simulationist” kind of shoots like these.
When I was in a club that did this all the time we had a guy that made some targets. Including a life sized uruk-hai.
Holy crap that’s AWESOME.
I bet I wouldn’t be the only one who couldn’t resist shouting
“THAT ONE’S FOR BOROMIR!!!”
Lol

Good point. But I promise you it is dead inside.
The new Turok game is taking a weird turn.
Shooting arrows at dinosaurs…? Isn’t that how all the games have worked?
Sure, but usually you don’t casually take your smartphone out next to them to take pics afterwards.
New games all gotta have that “camera mode” now!
