General etiquette is to look for arrows • Target Captain’s job • monitor shooting rotation • settle all local questions • decide on arrow scores except their own, this is done by the First Scorer

  12. On the Range RULES and ETIQUETTE Unclear/unsafe shot rule: You are entitled to shoot a target singly if you feel you do not have a clear shot of the target or your footing is not sound. Foot placement rule: One foot shall touch or not be more than six inches behind or to either side of a marker. DO shoot arrows in numerical order If you shoot out of sequence by mistake advise the Target Captain immediately. DO NOT shoot further arrows until the mistake has been understood. • Shooting • Archers MUST shoot in pairs • A/B: Target Captain / First Scorer • C/D: Second Scorer / Arrow Puller • E/F: Archer 5 / Archer 6 • Archers MUST rotate shooting order after each target (Exec note): • First target: (A+B)/(C+D)/(E+F); • Second target: (C+D)/(E+F)/(A+B); • Third target: (E+F)/(A+B)/(C+D); • Forth target: (A+B)/(C+D)/(E+F), etc. • Archers MUST rotate shooting position rule: 1-14 LEFT: A/B, C/D, E/F & 15-28 RIGHT: B/A, D/C, F/E

  13. On the Range RULES and ETIQUETTE • Scoring • Marking scorecards with A-C-E, as shown, helps track shoot rotation • DO NOT touch arrows in the target, to do so will forfeit your score • DO NOT pull arrows until scoring completed • DO pay attention to the score being called for you. It is hard to correct mistakes later • DO check your final scores match. It is hard to later correct results entered for you

  14. On the Range JUNIORS and CUBS Additional Information: Day Off The Day Off rotation may mean that families who shoot are not guaranteed to have the same day off. There is no official provision for supervising children who are on a rest day Parents need to be aware of the ‘day off’ situation and make alternative arrangements with others not shooting to take care of younger children or not shoot themselves. • Juniors • Juniors shall shoot in their own groups • Cubs • Cubs shall shoot in their own groups with a non-shooting responsible adult. The non-shooting responsible adult may be one of the scorers for the group.
