Speed Trap,
I believe that your regular bow hunting equipment will be fine. However, to be sure of any rule clarification please contact the individuals listed below.

The outdoor shoot will consist of a 900 and 3-D.
Maximum of 12 inch stabilizer for pins and releases. No stabilizer restrictions on pins, adjustable scopes.

3. Traditional
Events

3D
The archer has to guess the distance to the target as well as the location of the higher scoring ring on the target. Score is higher for the archer closest to the center score ring. Archers will keep their own score.


Field Event
A Field tournament is comprised of two ranges, a field and a hunter. Each range has 14 targets with 4 arrows shot at each target. The maximum value per target is 20 points. Each arrow has a max value of 5 points. Ex: 4 arrows x 5=20. 20 points x 28 targets = 560 total points per day. The field range has marked distances from 20 feet to 80 yards. All distances are divisible by the

five (5). Ex: 20, 35, 60, 15. There is no particular order to the targets. The first target can be at 40 yards and the second can be at 15 (feet or yards) and so on. The maximum distance is 80 yards. The hunter range is also marked but the distances are not necessarily divisible by five (5). Ex: 32, 26, 44, 11 yards. The maximum distance on the hunter side is 70 yards. Each target is marked and indicates how the target is to be shot. There are four (4) different ways to shoot targets. Standard, Walkup, Fans and Birdies
Standard, competitors shoot all 4 arrows from the same spot.
Walk-ups, competitors shoot one arrow at each target. Ex: The 80 yard target is a walk- up. Competitors shoot one arrow at 80, 70, 60 and 50.

Fans are targets in which competitors shoot the same distance but fan out to different spot on the line to shoot each arrow.

Birdies are targets competitors shoot from short distances. The birdies on the field side are also a walk-up and are shot at 35, 30, 25 and 20 feet. On the hunter side they are all shot at 11 yards. The birdies usually historically have a greater level of difficulty if the competitor has never shot them before.

-Indoor 300 Round
This is shot on an indoor range at 20 yards. There are 12 rounds or ends with 5 arrows being shot per round for a total of 60 arrows with a possible high score of 300. Each archer will shoot 5 arrows per round at either a spot or a 5 spot target. Archers will keep their own score.


Hope this helps and hope you get to attend. Bring some other law enforcement fiends with you.
