Archery Study Guide

*These are only suggestions.  You should definitely study the archery handout*

Remember on scoring you would start with the center being worth 10 points and each addition ring or color (going out from the center) would be worth 1 points less.  Ex.  10,9,8...

The Petticoat is worth zero points

A hanging arrow is worth the value of the color/line it's hanging from.

An arrow on a line is considered the higher value.

Know the following terms:

   ADDRESSING THE TARGET

    BACKING

    BELLY

    CANT

    FLETCHING - INDEX FLETCHING (COCK FLETCHING)

    FLU-FLU

    BLUNT OR BLUNT TIP

    ARROW REST

    NOCKING POINT

    PLUCKING

    SPINE OF ARROW

    TACKLE

    BOW WEIGHT -     Remember this is accurate when the bow is drawn 28".  It will increase or decrease by 2 pounds per inch.  Example - A person is using a 35 pound bow but has a 30" draw.  This bow is now considered a 39 pound bow.

    Definitely study the pages labeled "ANALYSIS OF THE FUNDAMENTALS".  You'll see this as a multiple choice type question that is asking you to correct a shooting problem.
