Archery competition bug/issue

The game is taking so long to load the archer competition, by the time I shoot my first arrow, the two competitors have already shot several arrows. This wouldn’t matter if the game didn’t reward the first finished archer with extra points. I’m constantly losing archery competitions by 1 or 2 points because it’s taking so long to load. I have the game on an SSD, and it’s all updated. I’m running a 7700K and a GTX1080 with 16gb of ram and the game is installed on an SSD. There’s absolutely nothing going on with my computer that would explain this besides there just being a bug with the archery competitions. It’s extremely frustrating because I’m pretty sure you get more level up’s if you win competitions. It’s taking me forever just to level up the bow because of this.

Also, does it take longer to level up the bow if you’re using hans capan’s bow? I beat him in a competition and I’ve been using his bow ever since. Right now I’m getting like 1 to 4 points per every archery competition, and it’s out of 140 for the next level. At this rate it would take me about 25 archery competitions just to go from level 3 to level 4. I think there’s something wrong with this game. I swear if Hans bow levels up slower and I’ve been wasting all of this time I’m going to smash my head off a wall. If if I run into another problem with this game where there’s no way I could find something out , and it’s destroying my experience, I give up. I can’t play a game where I’m supposed to read minds.

Go to Ledetchko and play Chumps which is a unique Archery Contest where you shoot logs as they float down the river, levels up Archery way faster. Also yes Archery takes FOREVER to level, you pretty much have to grind your ass off to get it to 20.

As far as experience, I don’t think regular competitions or which bow matters. What does matter is the targets your shooting at, to level fast either hunt or play Chumps. Otherwise only use normal Archery contests as a means to make cash.

Just go into the woods and crouch around shooting rabbits, It’s fast and levels both stealth and Bow
