Olympic rules are derived from WA rules. </p><p>Target archery competitions may be held indoors or outdoors. Indoor distances are 18 m (20 yards). Outdoor distances range from 25 to 90 m (27 to 98 yards). Competition is divided into <i>ends</i> of 3 or 6 arrows. After each end, the competitors walk to the target to score and retrieve their arrows. Archers have a set time limit in which to shoot their arrows. 3 arrows are shot in 2 minutes, and 6 in 4 minutes. </p><p>Targets are marked with 10 evenly spaced concentric rings, which have score values from 1 through 10 assigned to them. In addition, there is an inner 10 ring, sometimes called the X ring. This becomes the 10 ring at indoor compound competitions. Outdoors, it serves as a tiebreaker with the archer scoring the most X's winning. Archers score each end by summing the scores for their arrows. Line breakers, an arrow just touching a scoring boundary line, will be awarded the higher score. </p><p>In the past, most targets in competitive archery use some kind of stalks of grain or grass and may be constructed of <a href="/wiki/Spartina" title="Spartina">marsh grass</a> woven into a rope then wrapped around into a target.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>However, in modern times, most archery targets are made of synthetic foam, or woven plastic bags stuffed with cloth. </p><p>Different rounds and distances use different size target faces. These range from 40 cm (16 in) (18 m [20 yd] WA Indoor) to 122 cm (48 in) (70 m [77 yd] and 90 m [98 yd] WA, used in Olympic competition). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Field_archery">Field archery</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Modern_competitive_archery&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Field archery"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Field_archery" title="Field archery">Field archery</a></div> <figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Field_archery_freestyle_recurve.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/38/Field_archery_freestyle_recurve.jpg/200px-Field_archery_freestyle_recurve.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="134" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/38/Field_archery_freestyle_recurve.jpg/300px-Field_archery_freestyle_recurve.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/38/Field_archery_freestyle_recurve.jpg/400px-Field_archery_freestyle_recurve.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1840" data-file-height="1232" /></a><figcaption>A field archer shooting freestyle recurve at 60 m (66 yards).</figcaption></figure> <p>Field archery involves shooting at targets of varying (and sometimes unmarked) distance, often in rough terrain. </p><p>Three common types of rounds (in the <a href="/wiki/National_Field_Archery_Association" title="National Field Archery Association">NFAA</a>) are the field, hunter, and animal. A round consists of 28 targets in two units of 14 (until the early 60's two rounds of 28 were shot for 56 targets). <b>Field rounds</b> are at 'even' distances up to 80 yards (73 m) (some of the shortest are measured in feet instead), using targets with a black bullseye (5 points), a white center (4) ring, and black outer (3) ring. <b>Hunter rounds</b> use 'uneven' distances up to 70 yards (64 m), and although scoring is identical to a field round, the target has an all-black face with a white bullseye. Children and youth positions for these two rounds are closer, no more than 30 and 50 yards (27 and 46 m), respectively. <b>Animal rounds</b> use life-size 2D animal targets with 'uneven' distances reminiscent of the hunter round. The rules and scoring are also significantly different. The archer begins at the first station of the target and shoot their first arrow. If it hits, they do not have to shoot again. If it misses, they advance to station two and shoots a second arrow, then to station three for a third if needed. Scoring areas are vital (20, 16, or 12) and nonvital (18, 14, or 10) with points awarded depending on which arrow scored first. Again, children and youth shoot from reduced range. </p><p>One goal of field archery is to improve the technique required for bowhunting in a more realistic outdoor setting, but without introducing the complication and guesswork of unknown distances. As with <a href="/wiki/Golf" title="Golf">golf</a>, fatigue can be an issue as the athlete walks the distance between targets across sometimes rough terrain. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:DFRArcheryTarget.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/DFRArcheryTarget.jpg/220px-DFRArcheryTarget.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="328" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/DFRArcheryTarget.jpg/330px-DFRArcheryTarget.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/DFRArcheryTarget.jpg/440px-DFRArcheryTarget.jpg 2x" data-file-width="743" data-file-height="1108" /></a><figcaption>A home-made Archery target</figcaption></figure> <p>IFAA Field and International rounds are used in European Professional Archery competition. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Other_modern_competitions">Other modern competitions</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Modern_competitive_archery&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Other modern competitions"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The following are listed on the <a href="/wiki/World_Archery_Federation" class="mw-redirect" title="World Archery Federation">WA</a> website.

It is most common to see unmarked distances in 3D archery, as the goal is to accurately recreate a hunting environment for competition. </p><p>Though the goal is hunting practice, hunting broadheads are not used, as they would tear up the foam targets too much. Normal target or field tips, of the same weight as the intended broadhead, are used instead. </p><p>In the past 10 years 3D archery has taken new light with a competitive edge. There is a whole new group of competitions that are no longer considered hunting practice. Competitions are held in many U.S. states with the totals from each state being added together to crown a single winner within each division. Some competitors will travel thousands of miles (kilometers) a year to compete to try and claim the world title in 3D archery. This competitive style has been growing in many other countries and should continue with strong support for many years to come. </p><p>The major 3D archery groups are the IBO (International Bowhunting Organization) and the ASA (American Shooters Association) are primarily based in Eastern United States. They each have different rules and scoring methods. They host a number of competitive shoots across the Eastern United States. There are several classes in each organization that range from hunter all the way up to professional classes.

Traditional clout archery, up to Elizabethan times, was shot at 'twelve score', 240 yards (220 m). The flag is 12 inches (30 cm) square and is fixed to a stick. The flag should be as near to the ground as is practicable. Archers shoot 'ends' of six arrows then, when given the signal to do so, archers proceed to the target area. A Clout round usually consists of 36 arrows. Clout tournaments are usually a 'Double Clout' round (36 arrows shot twice). They can be shot in one direction (one way) or both directions (two way). All bow types may compete (longbows, recurve, barebow and compound). </p> <ul><li><b>Scoring.</b> A 'rope' with a loop on the end is placed over the flag stick. This rope is divided into the scoring zones of the target: Gold (5 points), Red (4 points), Blue (3 points), Black (2 points) and White (1 point). The rope is 'walked' around the target area and arrows falling within a particular scoring zone are withdrawn and, on completion of the full circle, are laid out on the rope on the corresponding colours. The designated scorer would then call out the archers' names and the archers would (in turn) call out their scores as they pick up their arrows. The scores must be called in descending order as with target archery.</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Crossbow_archery_(IAU_rules_internationally)"><span id="Crossbow_archery_.28IAU_rules_internationally.29"></span>Crossbow archery (IAU rules internationally)</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Modern_competitive_archery&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Crossbow archery (IAU rules internationally)"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Iau_field_xbow_08.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/82/Iau_field_xbow_08.jpg/250px-Iau_field_xbow_08.jpg" decoding="async" width="250" height="138" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/82/Iau_field_xbow_08.jpg/375px-Iau_field_xbow_08.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/82/Iau_field_xbow_08.jpg/500px-Iau_field_xbow_08.jpg 2x" data-file-width="700" data-file-height="386" /></a><figcaption>IAU 'Field' crossbow archery</figcaption></figure> <p>The International Crossbow-shooting Union (Internationale Armbrustschutzen Union – IAU) was founded in <a href="/wiki/Landshut" title="Landshut">Landshut</a>, Germany, on June 24, 1956, as the world governing body for <a href="/wiki/Crossbow" title="Crossbow">crossbow</a> target shooting. The IAU supervises World, Continental and International crossbow shooting championships in 3 disciplines; 30 m (33 yd) Match-crossbow, 10 m (11 yd) Match-crossbow and <b>Field-crossbow archery</b>. IAU World Championships take place every two years with Continental Championships on intervening years. Other International and IAU-Cup events take place annually. </p><p><b>Field-crossbow archery</b> was first adopted by the IAU during their General Assembly at Frütigen, Switzerland in 1977. Since then the sport has become the most popular, in terms of worldwide activity, of the IAU's three target crossbow disciplines. A feature of this sport is that many crossbow archers make their own equipment. By following the detailed guidelines issued by the IAU's Technical Committee it is possible to construct a field crossbow from locally available archery materials and target shooting accessories. The IAU's Field regulations call for the wearing of light-weight sports clothing, thereby eliminating the need for specialized (and costly) shooting clothing. Shooting takes place on open sports fields or in sports halls using portable archery target buttresses, once again avoiding the need for the expense of permanent shooting ranges (subject to IAU and local safety regulations being met). </p><p>Crossbow archers shoot from the standing position and they must draw the bow string by hand without mechanical assistance. At outdoor competitions Bolts (arrows) are shot in "ends" (series) of three at multi-coloured 10-zone archery target faces. A time limit of three minutes is allowed per three shots. After a sound signal from the official in charge of shooting, all competitors walk forward together to score and collect their bolts from the targets. This sequence is repeated until the completion of the competition 'round'. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:IAU_field_xbow.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ca/IAU_field_xbow.jpg/220px-IAU_field_xbow.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="143" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ca/IAU_field_xbow.jpg/330px-IAU_field_xbow.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ca/IAU_field_xbow.jpg/440px-IAU_field_xbow.jpg 2x" data-file-width="700" data-file-height="455" /></a><figcaption>A typical Field-crossbow</figcaption></figure><p><b>Equipment</b> – Field-crossbows are designed to specifications laid-down by the International Crossbow-shooting Union (IAU). These rules limit the power, weight and physical dimensions of equipment for use in archery-style competition. Other restrictions include the use of mechanical triggers and open sights only. The bowstring has to be drawn by hand without the use of mechanical assistance. The materials used in construction include laminated hardwoods, aluminium alloy and composites. The prod, or bow, is usually made from laminated carbon-fibre or glass-fibre which is fitted with a bowstring made from synthetic fibres. The maximum permitted draw weight is 43 kg (95 lb) at a maximum power stroke of 30 cm (12 in). Shooting a 20 grams (310 grains) bolt this set up will generate an initial velocity of around 67 m/s (240 km/h; 150 mph). Field crossbow bolts are made from tubular aluminium or carbon-fibre archery shaft materials. </p><p>The majority of the crossbows used in this sport are custom made in small quantities, often by the archers themselves. </p><p><b>IAU Championships Timeline</b> – <b>1958</b> 1st European Match-crossbow Championships Gent Belgium, <b>1979</b> 1st World Match-crossbow Championships Linz Austria, <b>1982</b> 1st World Field-crossbow Championships Mikkeli Finland, <b>1989</b> 1st European Field-crossbow Championships Wolverhampton England, <b>1992</b> 1st Asian Field-crossbow Championships Tainan Taiwan ROC. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Flight_archery">Flight archery</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Modern_competitive_archery&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Flight archery"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Flight_compound_UK_Champs_2007.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/56/Flight_compound_UK_Champs_2007.jpg/200px-Flight_compound_UK_Champs_2007.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="150" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/56/Flight_compound_UK_Champs_2007.jpg/300px-Flight_compound_UK_Champs_2007.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/56/Flight_compound_UK_Champs_2007.jpg/400px-Flight_compound_UK_Champs_2007.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2272" data-file-height="1704" /></a><figcaption>Shooting a specialised compound flight bow.</figcaption></figure> <p>In flight archery, the aim is to shoot the greatest distance; accuracy or penetrating power are not relevant.

Generally they shoot six arrows at each "end" and then search for all of them. Only four ends are usual in one shoot (as per UK rules – in the US only one end is permitted). At the end of the shoot, archers stay by or mark their furthest arrows while judges and their assistants measure the distances achieved. </p><p>Flight archery relies on the finest in performance equipment, optimized for the single purpose of greater range, using various types of bows (some unusual such as foot bows).

The score is counted if the arrow hits any part of the target.

Archers teams shoot alternately at two targets facing each other, 50 m (55 yards) away. A perpendicular array of wooden walls secures a path parallel to the shooting range. After each round, the archers take their own arrow and shoot directly in the opposite direction (thus having opposite windage). One always shoots the same arrow, supposedly the best built, as it was difficult in medieval times to have constant arrow quality.

Traditionally, archers stand within 12 feet (3.7 m) of the bottom of a 90 feet (27 m) mast and shoot almost vertically upwards with 'blunts' (arrows with rubber caps on the front instead of a point), and 'flu-flu' fletchings (very large, wound round the shaft to quickly reduce speed and distance of flight) the object being to dislodge any one of a number of wooden 'birds'. These birds must be one Cock, four Hens, and a minimum of twenty-four Chicks. A Cock scores 5 points when hit and knocked off its perch; a Hen, 3; and a Chick, 1 point. A <a href="/wiki/Popinjay_(sport)#Horizontal" title="Popinjay (sport)">horizontal variation</a> with <a href="/wiki/Flemish_Region" title="Flemish Region">Flemish</a> origins also exists and is also practiced in Canada and the United States </p><p>A Papingo is also hosted during the summer in Scotland by the Ancient Society of Kilwinning Archers. The archers shoot at a wooden bird suspended from the steeple of Kilwinning Abbey. Here only one bird is the target, and the archers take it in turn to shoot with a longbow until the "bird" is shot down. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Roving_marks">Roving marks</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Modern_competitive_archery&action=edit&section=14" title="Edit section: Roving marks"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Roving marks is the oldest form of competitive archery, as practiced by Henry VIII. The archers will shoot to a "mark" then shoot from that mark to another mark. A mark is a post or flag to be aimed at. As with clout a rope or ribbon is used to score the arrows. In the Finsbury Mark the scoring system is 20 for hitting the mark, 12 for within ~3 ft (0.91 m), 7 points for within the next ~6 ft (1.8 m) and 3 points for within the next ~9 ft (2.7 m). "Hoyles" are marks that are chosen at the time from the variety of debris, conspicuous weeds, and so on found in most outdoor areas. As the distances have to be estimated this is good practice for bowhunting, and it requires minimal equipment. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Wand_shoot">Wand shoot</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Modern_competitive_archery&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section: Wand shoot"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>A traditional English archery contest.

The rules of combat archery dictate that no archer may shoot at a light, however all may shoot at a heavy.
