Competition day arrived and i felt ready, i stayed after school the day before to have my trebuchet finely tuned and ready to win. There were two competitions one for accuracy, who could get closer to a bulls eye and hit the wall on the bulls eye and distance, whose threw the longest. In the accuracy i threw three times and my best counted, i was two inches from the middle and hit the wall, but lost and got second, beat by one inch! On the distance my trebuchet didn't fire like i wanted so on my third throw i adjusted and threw again, i had second again beat by a few feet. Overall throw i had first place and was pretty happy.
