A contest was occuring and the stakes claimed that anyone who could shoot an arrow through twelve holes created by axe heads would have Penelope's hand in marriage. None of the men were successful and, when Odysseus came as a begger, he was quickly judged but was able to shoot the arrow through the axe-heads.
