This will be the last warm up before the JOAD Nationals. We will be shooting a full FITA over two days.

Please make a note if you are doing this in the comment section of the registration form.

SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT YOUR TARGET CHOICES!
Please choose "fullsize 10 ring target face" or "3-sot 5ring target" at 30 meters. Due to improved quality of some shooters, 9-12 arrows in a single target can be destructive (arrows hitting arrows). FITA now allows individual faces at 30 meters, similar to the three-spot idea from indoors. The multi face will allow each archer at 30 meters to have their own individual target face, but scoring only goes out to the six-ring on individual face targets. In the case of the archer shooting a "5" or lower, no points are awarded when the target is a multiface/three-spot.  Please note that the rings are all the same size on both targets, the three spot just does not have scoring rings from "1" to "5" points.

10 ring:

5 ring multiface,
aka 3-spot:
