Newer Archers - try shooting a Round..

If you have been a member for a few weeks now and you find yourself getting a fairly good group at 50 yards then why not score a round ? 

At most Club Sundays targets are set at 60 and 50 yards.. and using these distances Gents Recurve can achieve up to a 2nd Class classification, and Ladies Recurve a 1st class classification.

To do this the easiest route is to shoot a round called a National, which is 4 dozen arrows at 60 yards and 2 dozen at 50 yards. 

Pair up with someone and score each other's sheet and hand your scores to me when you next see me.   

Don't be afraid to ask any of the more seasoned club members to help you score. I would be happy to shoot and score with you. Sheets are kept in the cupboard. 

For Gents 

436 or better will get a 2nd class, 319 or better is a 3rd class.. 

For Ladies  

436 or better is a 1st and 336 is a 2nd class, 205 or better is a 3rd class.. 

For Gents Long Bows you will need 88 for a 3rd class and 146 for 2nd..  

You will need to achieve the score three times (not necessarily consecutive scores) to qualify. 

Come on Arundown !

Happy shooting.. 

Stephen.
