Each month, on the third weekend we score. ( moved to 4th weekend in April due to Easter break)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 . New archers learn how to keep score, and may keep the scorecards to have a log of their own progress. 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 an event more comfortable and into a no-brainer.
Youth are to learn how to do this, independent of parental supervision.
Scoring Class Basics:
- Earning pins: must be a USA Archery Youth, Adult or Family member & Learn Archery member- print USA Archery membership card
- Please arrive early to obtain and fill out your score card with name, distance, and date .
- First scoring arrow begins at 10:30 Saturday and 3:30 on Sunday, Arrive early if you need to have practice/sight-in shots.
- In order to complete the 30 (or 36 arrows if outdoors) students must be geared up and on the line at 10:30 (or 3:30 Sunday) at start of class, with scorecard filled out and ready to go.
- Focus for completing score cards will be on JOAD or SOAD members earning rank
- Those with their own arrows may shoot 6 arrows which will allow completion of scorecard if "on time" start.
- Those seasoned JOAD SOAD members using program arrows will start with three arrows, unless class numbers permit 6 arrows, however may not finish in time allotted.
- Adults not scoring at their appropriate distances with correct size faces, or students not members of JOAD/SOAD using program arrows will only use 3 arrows for time considerations for those earning rank , and will not end with a completed card.
- New students focus will be to learn protocol, and how to complete the score cards, and will shoot only 3 arrows ( will not end with a completed a score card due to time considerations.)
Class may run longer during scoring sessions if earning rank/pins.
