Morley Field Archery Range

FREE DONUTS

Now that I have your attention, there is a WORK PARTY this Sunday at Morley Field to prepare for the State 900 round.


The work party will run from 7A-10A, and yes: there will be donuts and coffee for volunteers.

Volunteers also get to shoot the next regular SDA shoot for free! (3D, Animal, Field, Hunter Round. Sorry, does not count for State 900)

Here is our list of projects for the day:

  1. Bale rotation/replacement and target maintenance
  2. Weed whack behind bales 
  3. Clear out/organize container 

Bring sturdy work gloves and water.

Thank you so much!
We really appreciate all of our wonderful volunteers!

    Morley Field Archery RangeVolunteers get to shoot their next SDA tournament for free!      

The San Diego Archers truly appreciate your help!

Both archery ranges in Balboa Park are maintained by volunteer efforts alone. If each member (non-members welcome, too!) contributed just one hour of volunteer work on either range, we would have two of the nicest looking ranges in California.

3D Round Turkey

Mulligans and Doe Tags:

If you missed or scored low with the first arrow, a mulligan allows you to take another shot at a target. If you use a mulligan, your score is determined by that second arrow, even if you score worse than the first arrow.

You may use a second mulligan on the same target. Your score is determined by the last arrow shot.

There will be 1 or 2 buck-doe spreads in the field, where the doe placed between the buck and the archer. If you hit the doe and do not have a doe tag, you score -5 on the target. If you have a doe tag, you score zero. You cannot use a mulligan if you hit the doe, whether or not you have a doe tag.

If you hit the buck or miss completely, you may use a mulligan and your score is determined from that second arrow.
