Courtesy of DRT:
The new year always comes with expectations. Sometimes unrealistic ones.
Back in the day, the acceptable accuracy to hunt on some places was 4 out of 5 arrows on a paper plate at 20 yards. We will start at 20 yards. Target is a paper plate, half inch or so dot in the middle to aim at.
You have to hit it four out of five shots and the first shot has to hit it. (To keep some meaning in the FSC part)
No rubbing or clipping the edge. Solid, arrow point through the plate. The second miss you're done for the day even if you only shoot three arrows.
You can shoot it up to four days. But each day you are unsuccessful you move up 3 yards. So if you screw it up today tomorrow shoot from seventeen. Screw that up Tuesday you are at fourteen and so on.
Tie goes to tighter group at furthest distance, so measure from dot to furthest arrow

I only have 4 fletched arrows.  You only need 4 on target to win. Only two of mine are fletched. My groups might be better (unlikely) if I shot all fletched arrows. Thanks for the 2023 Folder.
