The event features 2 age divisions with participants separated by gender. All participants must use a bare bow setup:

• Bow may be longbow or recurve. (Genesis compound bow will not be permitted). Bow must be shot using fingers (glove or tab permitted). Bow string may have up to two nocking locators but neither can be used as a sight aid. Bow may NOT feature a sight or level (including marks made along the sighting window or riser. IE Camo), draw length checker (kisser or clicker) or stabilizer. Plunger is permitted.
• Arrows may be shot from shelf, top of hand or a basic arrow rest. No magnetic, “fang”, “lizard tongue” or other modern arrow rests will be allowed. Arrows may be made of wood, fiberglass, carbon fiber or aluminum. Arrows may be fletched with feathers or vanes. Only target and field points are permitted, no broadheads.

SCORING:

Archers will shoot on a FITA standard 60cm target from a distance associated with their age category. Divisions are separated by gender.

• Young Adults (Grades 9-12) & Adults will compete at 25 yards
• Youth (Up to 8th Grade) will compete at 15 yards.

Scoring in qualifying rounds will be scored using FITA rules. Arrows  touching the higher scoring ring will be awarded the higher score. During and before scoring, no one is permitted to touch the arrows. Archers will score as a group. If there is a disputed arrow score, then a field judge may be called to make a ruling. Field judge will have the final call.

• Participants will shoot one (1) practice round and Six (6) scoring rounds using 6 arrows.
• Top 8 scoring archers in each category (Age and gender) will advance to single elimination rounds. 1v8, 2v7, 3v6, 4v5
• Single elimination rounds will score X as eleven (11). Archers will shoot 3 arrows per match. In event of a tie, archer with arrow closest to the center wins the match.
