While participating in a local TOURNAMENT.
You will need your official scorecard certified by an adult witness.
Once you have shot and tallied your scorecard, they will sign off as evidence it was performed.
Then you shoot a digital picture of you and them holding the scorecard – this photo is emailed in.
SHOOT – This is the fun stuff! Every award in the ARCHERS QUEST progression is shot at a standard distance at each level. You will shoot 30 arrows (usually six ends or 5 arrows) for a potential max score of 300 points! You need 210 or more to pass to the next level. You may choose to shoot the indoor or outdoor (or both) to qualify. You may be anxious about how to fill out the scorecard, but the counselor will be happy to help.
One of the unique things about this program is that it anticipates your evolution in skill and equipment. Right now, you may be borrowing a simple barebow from a program, say summer camp. You will be shooting outdoors mostly, but later you may be shooting a NASP program at school indoors with standard Genesis equipment. No problem. As you move through venue and equipment, we have a plan. The target size stays the same depending on equipment used (barebow-largest target, pin sights on a bow- smaller target, advanced bows with scope sights-get handi-capped with a tiny target… but everyone shoots from the same distance indoors or outdoors. Distances get longer (harder) as the program continues!
