2020 Cold Bow Challenge Question/Comment Thread

[robby denning]

I wondered about shooting in my yard just to be in for the prizes but felt that wasn't really the spirit of the competition, I'm glad you clarified it. I think you should highlight that in the main rules so people don't just get in for the prizes.

It's a bit of a trip to the range just for one arrow but man the spotter is enticing.

Thanks for the great competition.

Hey man, I jumped into the rules and made that clarification. See screenshot. Does that do it?

Also, we’ve had quite a few
guys drive to the range five times to to get in this challenge the last three years (remember it doesn’t have to be five days in a row). It’s a for-real challenge but I guarantee if you can make it happen, you’ll be a better archer for it.

Even though we limited it to 200 shooters, that’ll take a while to hit that if we even do, so it’s not like you gotta be in on day one, unless they surprise me.

have you decided on MER yet?

@robby denning .. The way i'm reading this, the first 200 ppl to start the challenge are in, not the first 200 to finish???

45 off my knees, same as last year. That seems a reasonable option for both distance and sneakiness.

Ya, that makes it clear. Thanks for putting in the work to make these things happen.

And I have a sad/embarrassing tale to tell. At least at this point it doesn't bother me quite as much.

good reminder for all of us---switch up your positions, wear your pack, take it off, etc.

And man, you gotta quit teasing us on this "story to tell". We're all ears and eyes, post it up!!! C'mon!

Yes after 200 people sign up the cold bow challenge, it will close for those who can draw prizes. After that members can still join the fun, shoot to see thier true MER, and post up thier results but won't be entered in any drawings for the prizes.

I don't keep up with the fancy crowd, but that seems like Coleman/igloo prices.

I agree. I feel like a 65 is way more but don't pay attention because I can't even afford to look at them lol

It would cost $65 to ship something like that.

$65 gets you a life sized wall decal that you can put up in your garage!

One of those tailgate pictures? So it looks like it's in your truck bed?


Hate to side track this.


Some great prizes this year. Thanks for putting this together Robby and everyone else on the staff. Look forward to it every year now.
