AHHHH...what happens to all the well
trained-in "form" when a tournament comes up?
How does your routine work when the need to make the high score, or beat the other competitors and take home the gold medal, trophy or the coveted "hot Soda", comes into play?
Each month, on the third weekend we score.
New students begin to learn the ins and outs of what each ring is worth, the power of the lines that edge the rings, and what arrows may help in a strategy to gain points . Archers keep score and may keep the scorecards to have a log of their own progress. If students are a member of the JOAD/SOAD program, they can turn in cards for rank and pin awards. This continual "dry-run" makes scoring at an event more comfortable and into a no-brainer.
When an archer concentrates on score, or outcome, they give themselves a disadvantage. Keeping the mind on the process, each step...each piece...one after another, gives the most composure, and best results.

We will score as we have in the past,
shooting the outdoor rounds - 36 arrows (12 ends - 3 arrows each, or those with their own arrows: 6 arrows x 6 ends) , or, indoor rounds - 30 arrows ( 10 ends -3
arrows each -or 6 for those with their own arrows), and all participants must be on the appropriate target face at appropriate distance.Two (+)archers scoring and checking together.
New archers will learn how to score, the meaning of the rings and appropriate conduct and procedures.
JOAD/ SOAD may turn in scorecards for achievement awards.
If not thunderstorming, ALL students, please head to the pavilion at the outdoor range from the back parking lot to check in.
