Big Game Shoot
The Course
The course consists of 35 McKenzie 3-D targets at unmarked
distances. These targets are spread out over 10 acres of wooded, hilly
terrain. The course is both realistic and challenging meaning the animal
targets are placed in natural settings, at reasonable bowhunting ranges.
Shots will range from about 12 yards to just over 50 yards and that distance
varies depending on what class you are shooting.

Scoring
3-D Targets are scored 10 for a hit in the center kill
(IBO 10-ring), 8 points for a hit in the outer kill (IBO 8-ring), and 5 for a
hit anywhere else (IBO 5-ring) or an “X” for a complete miss.
Scoring rings are in the higher scoring section. Arrows touching the line are
scored as the higher value.
Breaking Ties
Scores are determined first by total points then by
highest number of spots (+’s). Scores tied after that will be decided
by the first dropped plus (+) beginning with the last target and counting
backwards to the first. Should any score remain tied after the first dropped
plus (+) method, there will be a shoot-off Sunday afternoon. Shooters not
present for the shoot-off forfeit the shoot-off.
