Frolic Competitions:

Long Gun Paper Shoot - On the static range, competitors will have a chance to shoot 5 shots at a paper target about 35 yards downrange. This competition costs $5.00 for 5 shots. All targets must be returned for scoring at the end of 5 shots. Prizes: 1st - 25%, 2nd - 15%, 3rd - 10%

Poke-n-Hope (aka the Mystery Shoot) -  This target has quickly become a competitor favorite. The target itself is what makes this shoot unique. The target is a sheet of paper with 80 blank squares. Each competitor shoots at the paper, however each square is worth an undisclosed amount of points that will be revealed at the end of the competition. The highest scoring competitor will win a prize. This means that even if you are a sharpshooter, you likely won't be the winner. Usually the greater the spread on the target, the more points are earned.  It may be shot with either a Long Gun at about 35 yards, or a pistol at about 25 yards. This competition costs $5.00 for 5 shots. All targets must be returned to the scoring table at the end of 5 shots.

Tomahawk Throw - This competition will allow competitors the chance to show just how good (or how bad) their tomahawk throwing skills are. Each competitor will have chances to throw a tomahawk at a wooden block in an attempt to cut a playing card. The individual with the highest score will be the winner. This competition is $2.00 per entry (Tomahawks will be available for use). Prize: 1st - 50%     

Novelty Walk-  A walk through 8 to 12 target stations in the field at varied distances. Some examples of the targets may be steel gongs, tennis balls, playing cards. Each of the targets is placed at varied distances providing a unique opportunity for each competitor to demonstrate their abilities. . .or just get lucky! It should be noted that each target/station is worth an undisclosed amount of points which is revealed at the conclusion of the competition. Entry Costs $5.00 per run of the entire course.
