Organization of 3D Events <br /> There are many formats and rule sets which 3D events are run under so some basic <br /> information will be covered here. Depending on the hosting club,the format of <br /> tournament,the number of days which must be shot,and how it is organized can vary but <br /> all will use some form of the targets shown above and use the scoring areas imprinted on <br /> each. Courses can be done indoors or outdoors under a variety of shooting conditions. <br /> For simplicity,a typical event will be described to help develop a base understanding of a <br /> typical event. Generally,the venue includes 20 to 30 targets which will be arranged at <br /> the discretion of the host club. For large tournaments,you may be required to shoot 2 <br /> consecutive days to post a combined score for ranking. Targets are placed in varying <br /> situations and at varying angles but in all cases,the scoring area is visible to the shooter. <br /> You may end up shooting from elevated platforms or hillsides to simulate a downward <br /> shot or you may shoot uphill though less common. Surroundings can vary from heavily <br /> wooded to open fields. Normally,the distance to the target must be judged by the shooter <br /> without any aids however some events now have known distance shoots or days when <br /> rangefinders can be used. The top competitive classes shoot unmarked yardage. <br /> Indoor <br /> Indoor events may be shot from a single line where advanced and beginning archers <br /> shoot the same distances—only the shooting class will vary(you are grouped according <br /> to equipment type and skill level). You may shoot at targets as close as 2 or 3 yards up <br /> to 50 yards depending on where the event will be held. In addition,you may be required <br /> to shoot across the lane of the person next to you so be aware of where your target is in <br /> relation to the shooters around you. <br /> Via: s. <br /> r <br /> '4V <br />
