This 3D Round includes:
28 3D targets
1 Arrow per Target
Scoring is 10-8-5
Maximum Score is 280
Rangefinders are allowed

We use a wide range of high-quality Rhinehart and Mackenzie targets set in various hunting scenarios.  Only one arrow per target is allowed unless mulligans are purchased.  Up to two mulligans and two doe tags may be purchased for $1 each either online or at the visitors table.

About 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.  Your score is determined by that second (mulligan) arrow, even if your score turns out worse than the first arrow.

You could use the second mulligan on the same target, but your score is determined by the last arrow shot.

There are a maximum of two buck-doe spreads in the field where the doe is placed between the buck and the archer.  If you hit the doe and do not have a doe tag, you score negative five (-5) points on that target.  With a doe tag, you score zero (0) points; however, you cannot use a mulligan if you hit the doe, regardless of whether you possess a doe tag or not.

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

Traditional Stakes for Recurve Archers and Longbows Shooters

Orange cone #1Longer range targets will have a traditional stake (orange cone) set (per NFAA rules).  Orange cones are designated for Youth and Traditional archers with a maximum distance of 40 yards.

*
For 3D Round events, if range-to-target is greater than 40-yards due to an apparent error in target cone set-up, you may use a rangefinder to adjust your shooting range to 40-yards.

Younger shooters

For Youths (12-14 yo), the longest distance is 40 yards
For Cubs (11 yo & under), the longest distance is 25 yards.

THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THE  RANGE:
It’s a walking course, just like a golf course.
Always walk to the right.

Please review the San Diego Archers Range Rules and Etiquette page before visiting.

 

This unique archery range sits on 30 acres in the heart of beautiful Balboa Park. The 163 Freeway to the west surrounds it, the San Diego Zoo to the north, and the Old Globe Theater and Museum of Us to the east.

Rube Powell Archery Range

The range’s entrance is on the south side of the Cabrillo Bridge (Laurel St.), near the SW corner of the Alcazar Garden Parking Lot.

 

The Balboa Range also has a small practice area at the entrance, with target butts at 10, 20, 30 and 40 yards.

The Balboa Range is open to the public from sunrise to sunset, 365 days/year, for just a $ 2-day use fee. 14 targets are open year-round (Targets #15-28).

The remaining targets are only open during tournaments, held twice each month on the 1st & 3rd weekends.

The first open target (#15) is on the north side of the Cabrillo Bridge, which is a 5-10 minute walk from the entrance/practice area (noted in the map above).

Each target has yardage markers (tabs) varying from 5 to 80 yards, depending on the target. This is a NFAA-certified course!

The Balboa Park Rube Powell Archery Range and the Morley Field Archery Range are both maintained by volunteers from the San Diego Archers (and non-members, too!)
