What is a Field Round?

“A field round is a challenging course, generally placed in a woods, in varying terrain, at different distances from target to target.

There are a few basic differences between field archery and most 3-D courses. Most notably, that field courses have marked yardages. You shoot four arrows at each target.  Some of the shooting positions let you shoot all four arrows from one marked stake; some shooting positions have stakes at four different positions where you walk toward the target on each shot, or in a fan position. The distances vary according to the round you are shooting. The standard NFAA field round has distances that vary from 20 feet (6.7 yards) to 240 feet (80 yards). There are four different size faces, the further the target, the bigger the target. "Hey," you say, "I don't shoot at deer that are 80 yards away." No, neither do the rest of us. The idea is that it teaches you to aim at a spot and will make a better all around archer out of you. Field round targets are round, black and white faces. The hunter round, something like the above field round except that you shoot at an all black face with a white dot. The ranges on this round vary between 33 feet (11 yards) and 210 feet (70 yards). Again, 2 fourteen target units make a round.

Now the younger folks get a break. If you're under 15, your longest distance is 50 yards; if you're under 12, the longest range is 30 yards.”
