The archer will shoot four arrows at each target, so he/she will shoot a total of 112 arrows per field round. Some of the shooting positions let you shoot all four arrows from one marked stake; some shooting positions have stakes at four different positions where you walk closer toward the target for each shot, or slightly to the side, in a fan position. The distances vary according to the round you are shooting. The standard NFAA field round has distances that vary from 20 feet to 80 yards. There are four different size faces, the further the target, the bigger the target. The idea is that it teaches one to aim at a spot and will make a better all around archer.
Targets are round, with a black spot, white inner ring, and black outer ring.
Scoring on the targets is
5-4-3. The archer gets 5 points per arrow hitting the spot, 4 points per
arrow hitting the inner ring, and 3 points per arrow hitting the outer
ring. Touching the line will count for the higher score. With four
arrows per target, there is a possible score of 20 points per target and a perfect
round is 560.
