Archery Class Training Details: SCORE
BASICS:
Indoor distances are either 9 or 18 meters, with either a 60 or 40 cm face.
New students ( adult or youth) will be assigned 9 meter distances as
this class is designed to offer the fundamentals of scoring, while
providing continued training to enable students to progress to further
distances.
Each month, on the third weekend we score.
Great opportunity to learn the ins and outs of what each ring is worth,
the power of the lines that edge the rings, what arrows may help in a
strategy to gain points, and how to keep score.
If students are a
member of the Learn Archery & USA
Archery JOAD/SOAD program, they can use this session to earn rank and
pin awards. This continual "dry-run" makes scoring at a Tournament event
more comfortable .
Youth are to learn how to do this,
independent of parental supervision.
Scoring Class Basics:
Please arrive early to obtain and fill out your score card with name, distance, and date .
- First scoring arrow begins at time slot of session. Arrive early to have practice/sight-in shots.
- In order to complete the 30 arrows for indoors, students must be geared up and on the line at start of class, with scorecard filled out and ready to go.
- Those with their own arrows may shoot 6 arrows each end which will allow completion of scorecard if "on time" start.
- Earning pins? must be both a USA Archery Youth, Adult or Family member & Learn Archery JOAD or SOAD member- print USA Archery membership card
- Those seasoned JOAD SOAD members using program arrows
will start with three arrows, unless class numbers permit 6 arrows each
end. ( student may not finish in time allotted if using only 3 arrows).
- New students focus will be to learn protocol, and how to complete the score cards, and will shoot 3 arrows per end (will not end
with a completed a score card due to time considerations.) Adults not
scoring at their appropriate distance of 18 meters with correct 40 cm
size faces, or students not members of JOAD/SOAD and using program arrows will use 3 arrows each end for time considerations for those earning rank , and may not end with a completed card.
