Nice video! Im with you on the sticker thing. I dont like stickers. I would rather companies Silk Screen them if anything. I need to get to work on the badges!

 

[Carbon]

Where do you find 5oz tuna cans? All I could find was 7oz... Is there an equivalent, like the bottom of a tin can?

At a grocery store? MJ said a tostido dip lid is the same, or chicken... 8cm is the ring size.

You better bring your A game, my 7 yr old daughter wants to compete, and you don't want her to put you to shame

Planning on it lol. I have a 4ft cold steel in the mail, and my copper 1/2" is kickin' butt right now

Great vid duc I would love to hear more about the CT but can we get a conversion of M to FEET?

 

[Carbon]

google dude. 6m- about 20f

8m- about 26ft

10m- 33ft

 

[neondog]

15 meters equals 49 feet three inches (minus a hair.)

Video quality will improve with my next attempt.

Bulls eye will grow before I start working on the fifteen meter badge.

Is this good enough for four in at ten?

edit: the CD is only to show that the target is printed to scale. the circle I'm shooting for is the yellow one, approximately one inch smaller than a tuna can.

Here's my 6 meter qualifier: 5/5

 

[neondog]

Forgot to mention, four foot CT fifty caliber using commercial fifty caliber cones on 6.75" x .047" music wire shafts. Standard shafts are four inches by .040" so these are a little heavier. I'll try to find my scale before the next video.

Nice shooting Neondog! Nice to see a pro nailing the target!

 

[NightKnight]

Nice job on your video too MJ! Looks like you are pretty consistent, just need to move your aim down and to the left.

Yeah and it's funny because I know that and I tell myself to do it but I still don't. And when I really try to correct I end up shooting way down and to the left. I think it will work itself out in time.

Yeah I was going to say that before your edit, that since i knew the scale of your official target, that the darts in the yellow are well with in the tuna can diameter... Good shooting 4/5 is what you qualify for...

Though the qualifier is upto 10m. If you or any one else tries for 15m we will make a badge for it, but any distances past the 10m must be increments of 5. So that's 15, 20, etc. I don't want to have badges for every single meter

Good job
