Archery target 09/05/2013 08:30 PM CDT
Is there an archery target setup anywhere in the lands that simulates a live target with respect to aiming locations? If not, maybe someone could look at setting one up that acts as a like level target for competitions and practice.

Failing that, is there a more traditional archery bullseye target available in the lands? I recall there being one at EG? a year or two back but am wondering about year round.

Thanks!

Ta Illstim has an archery range.

I believe Willow Hall has one, as well, although I assume it's members-only. They seem to be a pretty active house, though. If you asked around, you might find a member willing to escort you inside for some target practice. :)

Thank you both! My ranger is visiting in the east at present hoping to get a tour of the famous airship! I'll do some exploration and track down the archery range as well.

So... The Ta Illstim archery range doesn't permit crossbows to be used (and the archery competition at EG doesn't permit crossbows either). As such, I am still looking for a crossbow friendly archery range with public access. I find it hard to believe that there isn't anyplace in the lands where you can simply go and fire your crossbow at a target short of finding a live 'volunteer'. Certainly prospective archers must practice someplace before going out into the wild and shooting at anything that moves.

If such a place simply doesn't exist at this time, maybe we could look to have a humanoid shape target hung up on a wall in some back alley someplace.

There are targets at the Ranger Guild in RR, but like everything else at the Ranger Guild, it's just decorative.

Thread hijack... Sort of.

The subject made me think of the target verb. Then I thought about target shooting with a miss and an arrow flying of into another room. Then I thought it would be a great cman to be able to shoot into adjacent rooms at a target that has left the room you are in.
