 * Grading**

Total= A + B + C
 * Scoring**

A --> Accuracy: This is calculated out of 30. 2 points will be deducted for every 6 inches you are away from the target. The target will be ~15-20 feet away from the launch point.

B --> Distance: This is calculated out of 20.

C --> Weight: This is calculated out of 20.
