If you’re up for it then here’s a little bit about it.

The Western round falls under the category of an imperial outdoor round.  As it’s an Imperial round the tradition is that you’ll be using the 5-zone scoring system.  You’ll be shooting 4 dozen arrows shot at 60 yards. Then, after a bite to eat, 4 dozen arrows shot at 50 yards.  All distances in a Western round are shot using 48 inch target faces (that’s 122cm in metric). We’re also going really traditional – English Longbows only with NO Kissers, sight bands or using ground markers etc. Wooden arrows only with feather fletchings.

If enough interest is shown, we’ll also put on a purse shoot at the end of the event.

As ever our intention is to provide a fun shoot based on the organisers idea of a traditional longbow competition.

Come and have some fun with Wymondham Archers.
