The competition
- Runs for 5 months: 1 October to the end of February.
- Shoot the round as often as you like each month; send only your best score of the month.
- Scores must reach Richard by midnight on the last day of each month.
- Monthly results are published as the season goes on. Medals at the end of the season, with a separate medal for overseas guests.
- All abilities welcome – you are shooting against yourself.
Equipment
- Thumb draw only. Any arrow, shot off the hand and on the thumb side of the bow (bow in the left hand → arrow on the right side).
- No shelves or rests.
- No sights, pencil marks on the limb, elastic bands or ground markers.
The Portsmouth round
- 5 dozen arrows (60) on a standard 60cm face at 20 yards (18m). Indoors or out, wherever you have space.
- Ends of 3 arrows. Ends of 6 are allowed if you are short of time.
- 10-zone scoring, 10 down to 1. No need to mark Xs – a gold is a 10. A miss is always M.
- No timed ends.
Scoring
- Don't touch the arrows until all of them are scored.
- An arrow cutting a line scores the higher value.
