Club Competitions, Peg and Badge System, Courses
During the year each member’s score contributes to two competitions, and a badge system which recognises their shooting ability and progress.
The badge system consists of four coloured badges:
yellow blue white and red
which the member wins after shooting a score of over 400, once off the yellow (closest to the target) peg and then three times off the blue peg, white peg and red peg (furthest from the target). The difficulty of shooting increases with increasing distance from the target and the more challenging terrain which often results. Only three courses qualify for obtaining badges, they are the ANZUS, 3D and Photo which all have unmarked distances, and similar scoring zones.
|
Example |
to obtain the White 400 Badge, the archer needs to have shot 1 x 400 off the yellow peg, 3 x 400 of the blue peg, and 3 x 400 of the white peg, the archer will then be shooting from the red peg, and will acheive their Red 400 badge when they have shot 3 x 400 from the red peg. There is no time limit.
In addition there is the Red450 badge for BBR shooters, and Red 500, 520, 540 and 560 badges
Competitions
The Hearts competition is simply the number of ‘20’s shot during the qualifying courses (ANZUS, 3D and Photo) added together to give a total score at the end of the shooting calendar.
The League round is slightly more complicated and consists of the top three scores obtained during the year from each of the qualifying courses (ANZUS, 3D, IFAA Animal) and the top score from each IFAA round- IFAA Field and IFAA Hunter, added together at the end of the shooting calendar.
