AZLance Report post Posted June 1, 2013 What are the physical challenges? Push-ups or deadlift 200 pounds? Or what? Also is there different categories for long bow, recurve, and compound? 70% lett off, or 100% lett off??? And is this for anyone? Or should you have been training for this? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BASS Report post Posted June 1, 2013 There is the entire course laid out for you. While some have been "training" no one has known what to expect until earlier this week when this video was released. Less than 100 have signed up, so your odds are still good! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
