A test of not just ones ability to shoot but to hunt and track, participants are released into a forest. Whilst within they are given a time limit of a day to fell as many game or beasts as they can, in as clean a shot as they can, and in as few as they can. They are given two quiver of non enchanted arrows to use, each with a specific colored band around the arrow shaft tied to them. but they can not reuse arrows on kills. Nor can they steel an opponents. Judging is then done via a scoring system based on size of the animal, distance the arrow flew and how quickly it would have killed them. Multiple shots though do not stack and they do not add in the multiplier for swiftness of death. The primary measure would be the difficulty of the shot, and the judges examining the kill at the end are well versed in archery and animal kill shots to be able to recreate from the body and the arrow entry and depth how it went. combined with the judges within the woods account of the matter.
