The aim of the league is to develop a form of competitive archery where clubs and groups of archery friends can shoot together in a relaxed atmosphere – at a pace they like – so as to produce their very best performance. The Bow is an international internet league. Details
It is similar to the mail match – but shot outdoors at 70m.
The rules are simple:
Ø
Format: FITA 70m round --- 72 arrows at 70m on a 122 cm target face using 10
zone scoring.
Ø
Timing: From Jan. 1 2012 until Sept. 30, 2012.
o
Victoria Bowmen will hold Bow 70m shoots on
Thursdays at 6PM.
o
The schedule will be set up once we know how many archers are interested in
participating.
o
You can also shoot and record scores at any time as long as there are two
shooters and rigorous scoring.
Ø
Number of shoots: each archer shoots up to 6 rounds, the top 3 scores count
toward a total aggregate score. You can shoot and record scores as often as you
like by submitting scores under an alternative name.
Ø
Scoring:
o
Score sheets will be provided – or can be downloaded from the Bow website.
o
Declare that you are shooting a Bow before you start scoring
o
Use rigorous scoring – ask yourself how a judge would score it in a tournament
o
Each round must be double scored and signed by both archer and witness.
Ø
Classes: Men, Women, & Cadet - Recurve / Compound / Longbow / Barebow. You can
shoot as an individual, or can set up and submit scores as a team.
Ø
Fee: To cover the cost of targets the fee for each round shot is $2, or $10 for
the series.
Ø
Records officer: Rick Ellis will act as records officer for the club and submit
archer’s names and scores to the Bow web page. Submit your
score sheets to Rick.
