The Competitive Archer by Simon Needham, Paperback | Barnes & Noble® Modern competitive archery involves shooting arrows at a target for accuracy and precision from a set distance or distances. This is the most popular form of competitive archery worldwide and is called target archery. The Competitive Archer form particularly popular in Europe and America is field archeryshot at targets generally set at various distances in a wooded setting. There are also several other lesser-known and historical forms, as well as archery novelty games. Various other large organizations exist with different rules. Olympic rules are derived from WA rules. Target archery competitions may be held indoors or outdoors. Competition is divided into ends of 3 or 6 arrows. After each end, the competitors walk to the target to score and retrieve their arrows. Archers have a set time limit in which to shoot their arrows. Targets are marked with 10 evenly spaced concentric rings, which have score values from 1 through 10 assigned The Competitive Archer them. In addition, there is an inner 10 ring, sometimes called the X ring. This becomes the 10 ring at indoor compound competitions. Outdoors, it serves as a tiebreaker with the archer scoring the most X's winning. Archers score each The Competitive Archer by summing the scores for their arrows. Line breakers, an arrow just touching a scoring boundary line, will be awarded the higher score. In the past, most targets in competitive archery use The Competitive Archer kind of stalks of grain or grass and may be constructed of marsh grass woven into a rope then wrapped around into a target. However, in modern times, most archery targets are made of synthetic foam, or woven plastic bags stuffed with cloth. Different rounds and distances use different size target faces. Field archery involves shooting at targets of varying and sometimes unmarked distance, often in rough terrain. Three common types of rounds in the NFAA are the field, hunter, and animal. A round consists of 28 targets in two The Competitive Archer of 14 until the early 60's two rounds of 28 were The Competitive Archer for 56 targets. Animal rounds use life-size 2D animal targets with 'uneven' distances reminiscent of the hunter round. The rules and scoring are also significantly different. The archer begins at the first station of the target and shoot their first arrow. If it hits, they do not have to shoot again. If it misses, they advance to station two and shoots a second arrow, then to station three for a third if needed. Scoring The Competitive Archer are vital 20, 16, or 12 and nonvital 18, 14, or 10 with points awarded depending on which arrow scored first. Again, children and youth shoot from reduced range. One goal of field archery is to improve the technique required The Competitive Archer bowhunting in a more realistic outdoor setting, but without introducing the complication and guesswork of unknown distances. As with golffatigue can be an issue as the athlete walks the The Competitive Archer between targets across sometimes rough terrain. The following are listed on the WA website. These competitions are not as popular as the two listed above, but they are competed internationally. It is most common to see unmarked distances in 3D archery, as the goal is to accurately recreate a hunting environment for competition.

Normal target or field tips, of the same weight as the intended broadhead, are used instead. In the past 10 years 3D archery has taken new light with a competitive edge. There is a whole new group of competitions that are no longer considered hunting practice. Competitions are held in many U. Some competitors will travel thousands of miles kilometers a year to compete to try and claim the world title in 3D archery.
