Notes:

13 Attended and did not register online for attendance or awards.
42 Registered online and eligible for awards.
35 Scores were posted. Corrections below: None.

  • Tournament notes: Somewhat cloudy, with a few sprinkles throughout. Otherwise very comfortable long-sleeved morning. The setup was exceptionally well done due to the solid setup crew, including Travis who prepped the now-deceased Flying Pig, Ken Bross who dutifully manned the flying pig throughout, Allison doing flags, Ken Cross, Ethan Wright, Nate Nier, Dan Norvell, and takedown by Jim Walker, Russ, Jonathan, Nate Nier and Jim Baker. Was a bittersweet turnout. Nice, though sadly, pre-covid would have hosted over 120+ shooters.
  • Today’s slogan: “The flying pig has flown its last…”
  • Misentered scores awaiting correction: None
  • Scoring ties: None
  • Late Score Postings, after 3 pm (not previously included in the day-of tournament scores): None

Flying Pig Cartoon
THE FLYING PIG 3D SHOOT
~ Range Finders Allowed ~

If you know anything about the local flora and fauna of the Balboa Park area of San Diego, you will be aware of not only the existence but also the migratory patterns of the Pink Lesser Spotted Rhinehart Flying Pig. 

For those less familiar with this legendary exodus, all indications point to the migration beginning on Sunday morning and lasting until around noon.  During this time, we anticipate that each person will get at least one chance to shoot at this unusual creature during its majestic flight across the Balboa Park skies (plus 27 other targets)!

So, get out your bows and start practicing!

This is a 28-target, 2 ARROW per target, novelty 3D shoot. You’ll find the Pink Lesser Spotted Rhinehart Flying Pig and a wide range of other high-quality Rhinehart and Mackenzie targets set at unmarked yardages in various hunting scenarios.

3D SHOOT DETAILS
      * Scoring: 10-8-5 (Flying Pig scoring: 25-20-16-10)
      * Maximum Score: 580
      * Mulligans & Doe Tags ($1 each):

If you missed or scored low with the first or second arrow, a mulligan allows you to take another shot at a target.  If you use a mulligan, your score is determined by that mulligan arrow, even if you score worse than the original arrow.  You may use a second mulligan on the same target.

There will be 1 or 2 buck-doe spreads in the field, where the doe is placed between the buck and the archer.  If you hit the doe and do not have a doe tag, you score -5 on the target. If you have a doe tag, you score zero.  You cannot use a mulligan if you hit the doe, whether or not you have a doe tag. If you hit the buck or miss completely, you may use a mulligan, and your score is determined by that mulligan arrow.

FLYING PIG MULLIGANS
Additional mulligans may be purchased for the Flying Pig!
$1 each cash or pay online.

Entry Fee:
$10 for SDA members & Active Duty Military
$15 for non-members

 

Please arrive at the Balboa Park Archery Range with plenty of time to register.
