Archery Rounds
Target archery is shot in rounds. Rounds are defined by the number of arrows that are shot at particular distances. Most outdoor rounds are shot at two or more distances. For example, a "Western" round involves shooting a total of 8 dozen arrows; 4 dozen will be shot at 60Yards and then the target will be moved nearer to 50Yards where the final 4 dozen will be shot.
