A predetermined number of ends comprise one round. 1-6 arrows will be used to shoot an end depending on the kind of tournament. (Ex. A blue face round is made up of 6 ends of shooting.)  \nRound: The set number of ends in a scored tournament that add up to the final total score.  \nAnimal Target (Field): The target is a two-dimensional animal target with printed scoring rings. The  \nsize/animal of the target depends on the distance being shot. 14 ends make a unit, two units make a round. Arrows must be numbered. Up to 3 arrows mat be shot and the highest scoring arrow will count. In the case of a walk-up, the first arrow must be shot from the farthest stake, the second from the middle stake, and the third from the nearest stake in order to be scored. Scoring: The first arrow can get a maximum score of 21 (bonus ring), 20 (high score section), 18 (low scoring section) or 0 for a miss. The second arrow can achieve scores of 17, 16, 14, and 0. The third arrow can score 13, 12, 10 or 0. The highest score of the 3 arrows is the only score recorded.  \nBlue Face Target: The spot shall be two white rings with blue X in center ring. The outer rings shall be blue. The bullseye shall be 8cm. in diameter with an X-ring. A single spot or 5 spot target may be used. The scoring is X, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 from the spot out on a single face and X, 5, 4, 4 from the spot out on the 5–spot. X-rings shall be counted and used as tie-breakers and will be considered part of the official score. 6 ends of 5 arrows will compose one S3DA blue face round. (NFAA is 12 ends of 5 arrows) . In a 5-spot, arrows do not need to be in their own spot.  \nClassic 600 Target: The spot shall be two gold rings with an X in center ring. This is followed by one gold ring, two red rings, and one blue ring. The scoring is X, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6. X-rings shall be counted and used as tie-breakers and will be considered part of the official score. 4 ends of 5 arrows will be shot at each distance, with 3 distances to be shot depending on age division.  \nField Target: The spot shall be two black rings with a white X in center ring. This is followed by two white rings, and then the outer two black rings. The scoring is X, 5, 4, 4, 3, 3. X-rings shall be counted and used as tie-breakers and will be considered part of the official score. The size of the target depends on the distance being shot. 14 ends of 4 arrows make a unit, two units make a round.  \nFITA Target: The spot shall be two gold rings with an X in center ring. This is followed by one gold ring, two red rings, two blue rings, two black rings, and two white rings. The scoring is X, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. X-rings shall be counted and used as tie-breakers and will be considered part of the official score. 6 ends of 6 arrows will be shot at each distance, with 4 distances to be shot depending on age division.  \nHunter Target (Field): Made of black rings with white outlines. The spot shall be two white rings with a black X in center ring. The scoring is X, 5, 4, 3 from the spot out. Xrings shall be counted and used as tie-breakers and will be considered part of the official score. The size of the target depends on the distance being shot. 14 ends of 4 arrows make a unit, two units make a round.  \nOutdoor Target (S3DA): The spot shall be two gold rings with an X in center ring. This is followed by one gold ring, two red rings, and one blue ring. The scoring is X, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6. X-rings shall be counted and used as tie-breakers and will be considered part of the official score. 6 ends of 6 arrows will be shot at a single distance.  \nVegas Target: The spot shall be two gold rings with a black X in center ring.
