The November session of the /r/Archery league is over + SUPER IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT INSIDE!

First things first, the announcement:

THE LINKS FOR ALL THE LEAGUE'S FORMS HAVE CHANGED! PLEASE UPDATE YOUR BOOKMARKS IF NECESSARY, AS THE OLD FORMS WILL BE DELETED IN THE FUTURE.

In the process of streamlining things for myself, I've merged the score submission form's output into the Rankings/Matchups sheet, and also moved the league's files completely into its own account on Google Drive. THIS MEANS THAT THE PREVIOUS LINKS YOU MIGHT HAVE BOOKMARKED ARE NO LONGER GOOD, AND SHOULD BE CHANGED.

The new links are as follows:

The Overall Rankings/Matchups sheet can now be found here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MigjrFgNjNSClhBusHGc6GBsngmUcJC5Pw05JpkMtGI/edit#gid=1283281208

The score submission form now can be found here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe5R1-y1AO-IMF3oV3p7aZxUOmEAqRSvo4IO4xFpvNYPtOGFg/viewform

Of note is that it is NO LONGER NECESSARY to go to some external site to upload your scorecard photo - it can now be done directly from the submission form. This should make it easier for everyone, but especially for those who score on their phones and have been required up until now to take extra steps to get their scorecard uploaded.

Additionally, to address mistakes I made this last session, score submissions are now publicly visible on the Overall Rankings sheet. This allows you to see if you made any mistakes, but more importantly, allows you to see if and when I have verified your submissions, and allows you to call me out on mistakes if I make them. Hopefully this will also allow me to figure out a system to completely automate scores populating the sheet, but that's a Future Speedly problem. =P

All links have been corrected on the league wiki page to reflect these changes.


And now, on to the results of November 2021!

(New?) Dual Takedown Recurve Case Option

Before I get to the case. HUGE shoutout to u/FerrumVeritas to all of his fawking awesome posts about equipment, risers, etc. Me and some friends started archery a few weeks ago, and after weeks of looking around and compiling info, the best I could share with my friends are mostly his posts interspersed with my own opinions and analysis in our shared spreadsheet. To the case! Not that I looked, but it doesn't look like anyone has done this yet? I wanted a case, but didn't want to carry around a rifle sized case. Nor did I want something obscenely heavy. I prefer a hardcase, but they were all exorbitantly expensive. I like the look of SKB, and the reviews and reputation is there; but for the price, I don't feel like the value is there. I also wanted something a bit different. Enter the Pelican 1605 Air! Website measurements showed a 25" riser was a tight fit in the Pelican, so I took a gamble that 1/2" of foam was plenty to protect the riser's ends. ...

Help me identify a problem with aiming.

So im trying to learn how to gap shoot, but the problem is, the first step is 'use the tip of the arrow'. Now when I do this, I can already tell before shooting that if I use the tip of the arrow, the shot will go way left, this is obviously before even factoring in the gap above and below the target. I don't have too much trouble grouping in the yellow at 10ms, but the way im 'aiming' is just looking at the target and knowing that I need to shoot a certain distance to the right and a certain distance down. Im not using the arrow tip here...its hard to say exactly what im using as the reference its just a feeling I guess? I wouldn't say its instinctive as im definitely trying to aim I just don't know how im doing it, and I don't think it would hold up as I increase distance so I want to learn how to gap shoot properly. I appreciate having to adjust up or down as thats part of gap shooting, but if im having to compensate right, what could the problem ...

Question on bow fit - Mathews V3 31"

Long story short: I decided after 2 years to upgrade my used Dreniln. Went in to a local shop and they steered me towards a V3. In hindsight they didn't spend near as much time with me as they should have. Anyway, my wingspan is just under 76" and the bow is set at it's max draw length of 30.5". In order to get a good sight picture and have my nose touch the string, I need to tilt my head down just slightly, which then causes my jaw to change position and a loose a bit of my anchor point. Is this common for a shorter bow, or should I really have gone with a bow that goes to 31" and/or a longer axle to axle to get a better angle? V3s are hard to come by around here so I may be able to recoup most of the cost of the bow if I decide to switch. Not sure what to do. I went back to the bow shop and the guy said "That's the cool thing about archery, some people move there head, lean back, lean forward, it's all a matter of how you want to shoot"...I...
