knew nothing aside from the fact that there is a bulls-eye when we got
here. The seating was general admission and we didn't even know where
was the best place to sit. So we're on the sides. There is a huge
Korean fan contingent here. Apparently the Koreans are huge in
archery, already capturing both the women's and men's team gold.
We just saw Korea (4th seed) and Taiwan (29th seed) win their head to
heads against Brazil and Phillipines respectively. They now go head to
head in a 1/16 elimination.
For those (like us!) who don't know the game, each person shoots 12
arrows. Bullseye is worth 10, with each ring around the bullseye worth
9, 8, 7, etc. So max points is 120. The archers take turns and it's
always a head to head match. Very interesting, and a relatively quick
game, about 20 mins a match. Right now, Korea is ahead 82 to 81 after
9 shots. Very close game.
