    The recommended method for removing arrows from a target butt is?

    • Grasp the end just forward of the fletches and give a slow and steady pull

    • Grab the arrow shaft just near the centre line and give a jerk and pull.

    • Grasp the arrow with one hand close to the entry point into the target and withdraw with a slight twisting motion

    • Wriggle the arrow left to right to loosen it then withdraw it slowly.

    Correct Answer
    A. Grasp the arrow with one hand close to the entry point into the target and withdraw with a slight twisting motion
    Explanation
    To remove arrows from a target butt, it is recommended to grasp the arrow with one hand close to the entry point into the target and withdraw it with a slight twisting motion. This method allows for a controlled and steady removal of the arrow without causing any damage or injury. By twisting the arrow slightly while pulling it out, it helps to loosen it from the target and makes the withdrawal process smoother.

    If an archer shoots an arrow after the specified time or out of sequence, what is the penalty?

    • The archer will lose the highest scoring arrow of that end.

    • Nothing, it is considered as normal scoring for that event.

    • Ten points are deducted from the archers scorecard.

    Correct Answer
    A. The archer will lose the highest scoring arrow of that end.
    Explanation
    If an archer shoots an arrow after the specified time or out of sequence, the penalty is that the archer will lose the highest scoring arrow of that end. This means that even if the archer had a high-scoring arrow in that round, it will not be counted towards their final score. This penalty is imposed to ensure fairness and adherence to the rules of the event.

    How can you prevent injuries to yourself when preparing to score?

    • When approaching the target, walk in from the side to avoid any arrows protruding.

    • Let somebody else do it.

    • Stand well back directly in front of the target so you can see where the arrows have hit.

    Correct Answer
    A. When approaching the target, walk in from the side to avoid any arrows protruding.
    Explanation
    Walking in from the side when approaching the target is the best way to prevent injuries when preparing to score. This is because walking directly in front of the target puts you at risk of being hit by arrows that may be protruding from the target. By approaching from the side, you ensure that you are out of the line of fire and reduce the chances of getting injured.

    If a mistake is made in an arrow value during a tournament, the archer and the scorer will make the necessary change and sign next to it. This ensures that the mistake is acknowledged and corrected by both parties involved.
