WA 30 m (barebow U15)

WA · Outdoor · one set of distances

Thirty metres on the 122 cm face is the World Archery Under 15 barebow round: twelve ends of six, 72 arrows, maximum 720. It is the shortest of the outdoor 720 formats, and the combination of a close line and a full-size face gives a young archer shooting without sights a target they can actually read. String-walking crawls are short at this distance and the point-on is manageable, so the round teaches aiming method rather than punishing the lack of it. The twelve-end structure is identical to every other 720, so the score carries forward as the archer moves out to 50 m in the older classes.
