Tournament Format

  • 300 / 30 arrow round which will consist of 10 ends; 3 arrows per end
  • Two ends of practice will be held before the official tournament scoring begins
  • Practice starts at 1PM.  Tournament starts at 2PM
  • Payout will be awarded at the conclusion of the full 300 round
  • Each end (time period to shoot three arrows) will be 2 minutes
  • Target faces must be replaced with a new face after the 5th end and are changed from bottom to top or vice versa.

Scoring Rules

  • Arrows must touch the line to be in the next highest scoring area
  • A judge will make all of the decisions on scoring questionable arrows; Judges calls/decisions are the final say
  • All arrows must remain in the target, untouched, until scoring is completed
  • The three-spot target face is scored on the gold (10,9) red (8,7), and blue (6) rings. The target face must be placed on the mat in an upright position.
  • X count breaks ties
  • If the X count is the same, an end (3 arrows) by end sudden death shootoff occurs, highest score wins

Shooting Rules

  • Archers shooting first will shoot the lower target face positions.
  • If more than 3 arrows are shot during an end, only the lowest 3 arrows will be scored.  A penalty of one point and one x (if applicable) will be assessed for each additional arrow shot. Misses or zeros will be counted as lowest arrows
  • An archer who purposely disfigures a target face to improve aiming or for any other reason may be disqualified.  Arrow holes may be repaired, provided there is no delay to the round.
  • Maximum arrow shaft diameter allowed will be 0.422 inches (27), with a point diameter not to exceed 0.425 inches. The shaft diameter will in­clude any wrap placed on the arrow and will include the size of the nock and the nock insert.
  • If an arrow is embedded in the target beyond the nock, a judge must be called and the arrow should not be touched. If the arrow is touched before the judge arrives, then the arrow is not scored. If a judge cannot determine the value of that arrow, it will be considered a pass through and will be re-shot.
  • Bounce outs can be shot again at the end of regulation shooting
  • One arrow is allowed per spot on a three-spot target face. If there is more than one arrow in a single spot, you will lose your highest scoring arrow or arrows in that spot.
  • An archer shooting before the whistle signaling a 2-minute end or after the time has lapsed will lose their highest scoring arrow

Scores will be kept on a paper scorecard, arrow calls are made by the majority of the group.

  • Scorecard must be carefully totaled and signed before being turned in as the final scorecard.
