About the archery

In Cudgelwar we will build and test shoot targets of this year Hämeen Linna medieval market archery competition. I can promise atleast shooting in to the castle window, known from the last summer coronation. We will also shoot rats from the grain sack and head of the enemy hanging on the rope.

Those who are interested may also show his/her artistic skills by painting pictures into the targets. Paint, brushes and targets will be there.

At saturday main competition we will shoot into all the finnished targets and test the point formula.
