Bowhunter Classes: Men’s, Women’s, and Youth

Once the first shooter has shot, the second shooter will step to the shooting lane to shoot, after the second shooter the third will shoot. All 20 shooters on the shooting line will be shooting at random. After ALL 60 shooters have shot, the Range official will acknowledge that ALL shooting lanes are CLEARED for scoring. The 20 lane format may vary per location, due to space. Changes will be at the discretion of the Tournament Director.

Q. There is no Speed restriction. BUT shooter must be able to pull the bow back in a safe manner. Shooter must follow ALL bow and arrow manufacturer recommendations.
R. Tiebreakers will be determined by the # of 12’s each shooter has. If the 12 count is the same, then a 10 count will be used and so on. If all scoring is the same, the shooter than hits a 12 first will be deemed the higher score.
