Disciplines
Archery is a sport in which the
participant uses a bow to shoot arrows at a target which has 10 concentric circles. The
score of each arrow depends upon where it lands on the target. The highest score, a 10, is
achieved by shooting an arrow into the center, or bullseye. Scores go down from nine for
the next circle out to one for the outermost circle. Missing the target results in a score
of zero. A smaller, inner ten-ring is used in compound events.
