Upgrade the bow with +50% damage to destroy the targets in a single shot (without a power shot). Note: To upgrade the bow easier, earn a bronze medal to get Something Stringy.
"Bullhead Court Shield" challenge
Immediately after blocking an attack, keep blocking. Some turrets will shoot four balls, or a hidden monster may attack. If you have two hits or less against the final enemy, stand directly next to the edge and wait for him to charge before jumping off. He should follow you off the cliff, and you will only get one hit. Note: Although it states that the requirement for a gold medal is two or fewer hits, you can actually be hit three times and still qualify.
"Shingles Fang Repeater" challenge
Lock on to your targets until you empty your magazine, then roll forward while reloading.
"Slinger Range" challenge
You cannot get negative points. Begin shooting just before the first target appears to get a few extra points.
