Schedule revisions may be necessary at the time of the tournament to accommodate special circumstances such as extreme weather conditions. Contestants are limited to shoot one equipment division per scheduled round/end.

Contestants have the option of choosing which equipment division for each round/end, provided the registration of the equipment is complete prior to the round/end shot.

The contestant has the option to compete with the same equipment division for all scheduled rounds/ends, or entering and competing in a different bow division for each round/end. For example, one can choose to shoot a 50Ib Modern Asiatic bow for all rounds scheduled, or shooting the first 2 rounds with the 50Ib Modern Asiatic and the next 2 rounds/ends with a 18kg Flight Bow, or shooting each round/end with a different bow type and weight.

Any contestant wishing to shoot any additional equipment (for testing or other reasons) may do so in an exhibition or demonstration round/end outside of the scheduled rounds/ends of the regular tournament. There will be no official results recorded for exhibition or demonstration rounds/ends.

Additional Information: While we hope for mild and dry weather, it is best to be prepared for an unpredictable mix of muddy terrain, high winds, dry hot temperatures, thunderstorms, and flooding. Be sure to bring plenty of water, sunscreen, and shade!
