"its realy fun that HA is evolving whit new ideas!

i got some thoughts about it.

about the sport and the historical competitions,
i have read better and worse ideas around this,

but the simplest way is to devide it in two diffrent groups, those that want to do HA as a sport and those how does it historical,

the Sport group stay whit the HUngarian, korean, Qaback style as a first choise,

and the Historical shoot at armored targets.
an easy way to give points, the more leathal the hit is the more points you get, same as a 3D animal target.

but the hard thing is that if we play whit our thoughts,
we got three main targets

first one whit leather armor,
secounds one whit chainmail over the leather,
third one got plate armor.

as head you could use a melon, or something..

if you like to have a 20# bow you probebly could get full score by penetrating the leather armor,

but not at the other targets, exept if you do a HS,

some targets may be hiding behind a shield and you are forced to shoot them in the back whit parthian shoot.

this way you could trigger the archers to get more precition in their shoots or more pounds in their bows!

AND! you could use what ever historical tip you want, exept explosivs or fire;)"
