Breaker's Bow Challenge: easy solution for first place

For ease of hitting each row, I recommend charging up a shot, getting into position, then cycling through the targets until you are targeting the last balloon in the row. It makes getting the first 4 rows much easier than trying to eyeball your aim when locked on the front one.

As for theoretical best, you might be able to do it in 4 shots:

Breaker's Bow Challenge: solution for fewest shots

The problem with that method, however, is that you can't use the "aim for the last balloon" trick described earlier since they all won't fit on the screen. As such, the difficulty is increased... and in the end, it's not necessary to get first, anyway.
