The November league is officially in the books! Prizes, finishing positions, and whatnot inside!

The Official 2020 Coronavirus League is DONE! May 2021 be everything that this crappy year was not.

There were... a lot of suspensions this session. If you can't participate, that's fine, but it kind of sucks to put all this together for everyone and then to have people just not show up. Please let me know if you don't think you'll be able to finish the next session before it starts, so people aren't just shooting against nobody. If we wanted to shoot alone, we could just practice at home.

In other news, let's all give a hand to the new League #1 archer, /u/archer_rob! He's my coach, so someone needs to go beat him next session!


Weekly Awards come first!

Squeek-er of the Week-er© (patent pending), of course, goes out to... sighhhhh... my opponent (because of course I would give up another Special Prize), /u/drsteezymd! They won their match against me by 11 points to take the award. Good job! ya jerkface

...in fact, upon reading a bit more, I gave up not one, but BOTH Special Prizes this week. Dr. Steezy took the Upset Of The Week™® prize from me as well.

I have failed everyone as a league leader. I will schedule my harakiri session soon to atone for the shame I have brought upon my league, my family, myself, and my horse.

Disclaimer: that was a joke, don't go calling 911 or anything. Although maybe go watch Mulan if you don't get the reference!


Final awards for the divisions are as follows:

Division 1

Gold: DrSteezyMD

Silver: Archer_Rob

Bronze: Solonys

Division 2

Gold: MikeRhyne

Silver: kcsskittles

Bronze: evelbug

Division 3

Gold: bananaboy23

Silver: dougbaker45

Bronze: 5lovestarr


My sincere thanks to everyone who participated, and congratulations to all the winners! Remember, everyone is signed up automatically for the January 2021 session, so if you need/want to pull your name from the list, you need to let me know!

I'll be posting a signup thread soon. If you know anyone that might want to join in the fun, please let them know about our league! The more people we have, the more even the matches and divisions should be!

I'll also be posting a discussion thread for changes to the league that anyone might want to propose. Keep an eye out for that!

I hope everyone's Christmas goes as well as it possibly can. Be safe!

PS: By the way, if you want to see the November sheet before processing, here's where you can do that!

I would take a takedown recurve bow as my primary SHTF/bugout weapon

This is the type of opinion that is subject to change. In the near future, deteriorating political, economic, and social circumstances may result in many people having to rely on weapons to obtain food and defend themselves on a regular basis. Alternately, some people desire to leave civilization for a life of self-sufficiency in the wilderness, perhaps temporarily, and will encounter the same challenges. Generally, firearms are the preferred weapons among people who seek to prepare themselves for these events. I have owned and used a wide variety of firearms over many years and own several right now. If I had to pick one weapon to serve as a primary weapon (a full-size weapon intended to be used offensively, such as for hunting, and carried in the hand or by sling as opposed to a secondary weapon, which is complimentary, used defensively and carried on-person and possibly concealed, such as a handgun) I just might prefer my ILF recurve over any kind of rifle or shotgun. It's ad

Having Trouble Figuring out a Backstop Situation

When I was around thirteen, I got my first recurve bow, and every weekend I practiced really diligently. I feel like I got pretty good for a casual archer. But having to wait for the weekend and going to the same indoor range just to shoot my bow for an hour or two got boring. So as life got busier, I stopped shooting as much. Alas, this is my sad tale. Now I'm 22, I live in a new area, and got a new awesome 50# recurve bow! The only problem is, I don't have the time or the money to go to an indoor range, and I'd just run into the same problem. I feel like my backyard is big enough, I called the city and they said so long as I'm not shooting at other people's houses or if I have a large enough structure in the path of my shot, I was clear to shoot in my yard. At the moment I'm looking at shooting at the side of my garage where it's probably around 10ft wide and about as tall. I don't think I have quite 30ft of distance, maybe not even 25ft, but don'
