Animal-18 January 2015
**Animal Round**
The San Diego Archers
Will host the Animal Round
This Sunday, January 18, 2015.
At the Balboa Park Rube Powell Archery Range
Registration opens at 7:30 am
Registration closes at 8:45am
Shoot begins at 9am
The Animal Round includes:
28 2D Paper Animal Targets
1-3 Arrows per Target
Maximum Score: 588
Animal Rounds use 2D paper animal targets with ‘uneven’ distances between 5 and 70 yards, reminiscent of the hunter round. The rules and scoring are significantly different.
The archer begins at the first shooting stake of the target and shoots the first arrow. If it hits, you do not have to shoot again. If it misses, you advance to the second shooting stake and shoot a second arrow, then to the third shooting stake for a third shot, if needed. NOTE: On some targets, all three shots are from one shooting stake only.
There are 3 scoring zones: Bonus Kill Zone, Kill Zone and Hit Zone. Scoring is based on where you hit with which arrow. The first arrow shot is scored 21, 20 or 18. The second arrow is scored 17, 16 or 14, and the third arrow is scored 13, 12 or 10.
The best score per target is 21, the total possible score for the round is 588.
Entry fee $15 per person, $10 for members
Please arrive at the Balboa Park Archery Range with plenty of time to register.
To ensure we start on time, it will be necessary to close registration at 8:45am.
Shooting starts at 9:00am.

Work Party – 10 January 2015
Volunteer Work Parties Are Back!
The San Diego Archers are bringing back regularly scheduled Volunteer Work Parties to help maintain both of our great archery ranges in Balboa Park. You do not need to be a member to participate in these events, just have the desire to give something back to the ranges that allow us all to enjoy the sport of archery in such a beautiful setting.
The goal is to have a different Volunteer host a Volunteer Work Party each month. If there is an area that you would like to focus on, please let us know. We will round up volunteers to help you with whatever area you want to work on (e.g., rebuilding stairs on hillsides, or shooting platforms and footbridge near Target 23, benches and tables at Morley Field, etc.).
Volunteer Work Parties will be held on the 2nd weekend of each month: on Saturdays in the odd months, on Sundays in the even months. Dates will soon be posted on the SDA calendar on the website and announcements emailed to all members, and to non-members who have requested to be on our mailing list.
The First Volunteer Work Party of 2015!
When: This Saturday, January 10th, 8am-noon.
Where: Balboa Park Rube Powell Archery Range (meet at Practice Area).
Bring: Sturdy shoes, work gloves (if possible), water.
Work Focus: Cleaning up bale making area on North border of the range, clear palm fronds, rack shooting lanes, etc.
Next Volunteer Work Party: Sunday, February 8, 2015
If you want to join us, just show up at the scheduled time and place. If you need more information, please contact us at: sandiegoarchers@yahoo.com
Thank you,
San Diego Archers
