Hunter – 16 November 2014

The Hunter Round includes:

28 2D Paper Hunter Targets

4 Arrows per Target

Maximum Score: 560 

The Hunter Round is a field archery tournament of 28 2D paper targets, firing 4 arrows per target.  There are 3 scoring zones on each target.  Each arrow scores either 3 points for the outer black ring, 4 for the middle black ring or 5 for the center white ring.  There is a center X ring to the inner 5 point zone.

 Add up each arrow’s score to give a total score out of a maximum 560. 

Yardages are marked and are in ‘uneven’ increments (not always in multiples of 5 yards) from the target up to 70 yards. 

Targets may have different shooting positions:

  1) All four arrows shot from one marked stake.

  2) “Fan”: Each arrow shot from a different marked stake, spread in a fan pattern.

                 Each stake at the same distance to the target.

  3) “Walk up”: Each arrow shot from a different marked stake at decreasing distances to the target.

                 (e.g., one arrow each at 45, 40, 35, 30 yards; or two arrows each at 45 and 40 yards.) 

For Youths, under 15, the longest distance is 50 yards.

For Cubs, under 12, the longest distance is 30 yards.
