Ready, Aim, Fire!

[ZenArchery]

We play games before our Youth Events. Last nights lesson was about "Missing the Point."

We put this TShirt on a student and he wore goggles. We had 100 q-tips, 50 straws and 2 bowls of red and blue food color. Divided teams in half. Gave them 2 minutes to shoot dipped colored q-tips at designated side at 15 feet. If you hit your side you added to team total but if you hit wrong side points were deducted.

It's hard to see but blue won.

Y'all should play this at the Oct 5 gathering bwhahahahha!!!

Im afraid someone would want to use something other that Q-Tips, like darts or something. It's not fun until someone bleeds.

If Zen was coming we could put the shirt on him and use red and white paintballs.

But in all seriousness we use this same game on a target with live ammo. You have two teams shooting at the same target divided left and right. Center hits count as 5 points outside as 1 point.

Each shooter has a certain time to fire then move to the back of the line. Of course if you hit the wrong side they get the point.

It can be altered as needed. Rifle, pistol , range to target. You can also make it timed event where you have X amount of time to fire as many shots as you can. Or a number of shots event where you have unlimited time to fire X amount of shots. But if you take to long this hurts your team unless the other team is missing.
