| 3D Scoring |
After all arrows have been shot, the archers move forward to the target to score the hits. Usually one person is responsible for pulling the arrows and calling the scores, occasionally asking for a second opinion when an arrow is close to the line. A second person records the scores for all shooters. 3D targets have three scoring rings. Hits within the heart-lung area, bounded by a large, irregularly shaped ring, are scored as 8 points. Within the heart-lung area is a smaller circular ring that represents a perfect heart shot; hits within this ring score 10 points. Within the 10-ring is a tiny circle -- not always in the center -- that is a bonus ring scoring 12 points. Arrows that are touching a line score the higher value of the two regions. Hits outside of all rings score 5 points, with the exception that hits on the horns or hooves score zero. Misses also score zero. Here are some typical scoring rings from a McKenzie 3D target. And you’re right, the heart on a deer is lower in the body than the 10-ring indicates. It’s very important to remember that 3D is target shooting, not hunting. Aim accordingly, and be particularly wary on angled shots.
