ARCHERY SHOOTERS ASSOCIATION
SC ASA Federation Director Tammy Carter 803-493-1875
ASA 3-D archery features competitive rounds of 20 lifelike, three-dimensional animal targets made of foam. The scoring rings are not visible from the shooting stake and binoculars are allowed. Advanced archers must determine the distance to the target, pick a good aiming point, and execute the shot. The ASA was the first archery organization to implement a speed limit for safety and to establish a level playing field for 3-D competition. Beginning in 2007, the ASA was the first national organization to incorporate known distance competition to provide competitors with another option for competing in 3-D archery. If you are a target archer, bowhunter or just interested in getting started in archery, the ASA will provide you the opportunity to meet and share experiences with new friends, learn about the latest equipment, improve your archery skills, and spend time with great people.

# Archers in Class Places Awarded # Archers in Class First Second Third
1-4 Archers 1st Place 1-3 Archers 100%
5-8 Archers 1st & 2nd Places 4-6 Archers 70% 30%

D. A 3D circuit competitor may only participate in one class for the circuit tournament.
This class must be noted on the 3D circuit registration form. A competitor may
choose to shoot a tournament in a different class, but this score will not count for
the circuit tournament.
E. A competitor may join the 3D circuit tournament at any time as long as there are enough shoots to complete the tournament requirements.
F. The 3D Circuit Champion will be based on four (4) Circuit scores(points) plus the State 3D. If a competitor competes in more than 4 3D Circuit Tournaments, the 4 highest points and the State 3D are used for the cumulative score. A scoreboard for the 3D Circuit will be kept on the SCAA website. Competitors should notify the SCAA 3D Circuit Representative for corrections. (Please do not wait to end of the year to review these.
a. If 3D Circuit member is not a member of the SCAA, he/she may participate in the State 3D as a guest. Circuit members may join the SCAA and participate as a full SCAA member.
G. Tournament standings will be used to determine the points earned for the competitor in the 3D Circuit Championship.
Points for 3D Circuit Competition are awarded using the following formula: ➔ 50 points for tournament participation ➔ 1 point for each competitor you beat also participating in the 3D circuit
tournament of the same class Example: There were 20 people competing in Bow Novice at 1 of the 3D circuit tournaments. Only 11 of these competitors were signed up for the 3D circuit championship. Standing and points for the 3D Circuit Championship will be based off of where you finished compared to other 11 3D circuit competitors and not the entire field of 20.
➔ 5 points for 1st place, 3 points for 2nd place, 1 point for 3rd place Examples:
Competitor places 3rd in a 15 person class: 50 (participate) + 1 (3rd place) + 12 (shooters beaten) = 63
Competitor places 2nd in a 5 person class: 50 (participate) + 3 (2nd place) + 3 (shooters beaten) = 56
Competitor places 1st in a 10 person class: 50 (participate) + 5 (1st place) + 9 (shooters beaten) = 64
H. SCAA has a speed rule of a maximum of 300 fps with a 3% variance. All 3D Circuit Championship shooters must be prepared to shoot through a chronograph. A disqualification of tournament score will result if a competitor shoots over the maximum speed after beginning the tournament. (excludes Known 40 Outlaw)
I. 3D Circuit competitors must shoot in a group with at least a minimum 3 adults. These adults do not need to be 3D circuit competitors. SCAA defines adult as a competitor that is 18 years old or older.
J. A tie for the 3D Circuit Championship is broken through a final shootoff following the State 3D/Circuit #7 tournament. Archers will compete in a single arrow shootoff until a Champion is crowned. SCAA State 3D Championship rules apply for shootoff.
K. Move Up Rule for Bow Novice- The past State 3D, 3D Circuit, Regional, OR SOY champions in the Bowhunter Novice class must move up to a higher class. He/she will be ineligible to compete in any of these competitions in the Bowhunter Novice class.
GENERAL TOURNAMENT RULES CONDUCT
A. Un-sportsmanlike conduct at an event will not be tolerated. Any violation of conduct, rules or of the SCAA Constitution & Bylaws will be handled with the Board of Directors. Actions taken by the Board of Directors will be final.
B. Verbal abuse or slander directed toward a Competitor, Tournament Official or guest while on club properties will result in immediate disqualification of the shooter from the Tournament. A report filed with the Board of Directors for further disciplinary action can be submitted.
C. ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES AND DRUGS ARE PROHIBITED. D. No shooter will be allowed to compete while under the influence of alcohol or any
other controlled substance. The penalty is immediate disqualification and sanction of membership. Also local laws apply as to conduct with possible arrest.
E. Please help keep our ranges clean. Littering the grounds of any tournament will not be permitted. Cigarette butts are the #1 littering item and a potential fire hazard.
F. Competitors are responsible for their guests. Your guests are required to behave in such a manner as to allow competitors to compete in a professional environment. Any Competitor can ask for the removal of a guest from the range for misconduct or creating a disturbance.
G. Protests can be made in accordance with ARTICLE VIII. PAR 8, PROTESTS of the SCAA Constitution.
TOURNAMENT REGISTRATION SCORING and Other Rules A. Each Competitor is responsible for completing any registration form(s) and that the
information is correct in your classification. After the tournament begins, it will not be possible to make changes or additions. Compliance to shooting and equipment rules are required to compete.
B. Shooting groups must have at least three shooters and no more than five shooters. Exceptions are allowed if permissible by the hosting club.
C. Each archer will shoot their arrows with one foot touching the appropriate stake for their division and class in which they are registered. Handicap vehicles or equipment can be position in a way near the stake for the shooter to execute a safe shot.
D. Scoring for 3D targets will be 14, 12, 10, 8, 5 and 0 in the respective scoring rings. Individual clubs may use or not use the 14 ring at their discretion for club shoots. When ASA 12’s are in play and the target has an upper 12, the upper 12 may be “called”. This will make the upper 12 for score as a 12 and eliminate the lower 12 from scoring. The lower 12 scoring area becomes part of the 10 ring. 10, 14 rings will be included as scoring opportunities for State Championship 3D shoots.
E. Tournament scorecards: 1. Each shooter will receive two (2) score cards for each round. All information on
each scorecard must be filled out and correct. Each group will designate two (2) members of their group to call scores and two (2) members to record the scores. (If the group has only three (3) shooters, the minimum per group, only one (1) will call
arrows). Archers will draw for the shooting order in their respective groups and rotate the shooting order. (For club shoots a shooter may be given one (1) score card.)
2. All arrows must remain in the target and should not be touched until all arrows are scored. The arrow shaft must touch any portion of the scoring ring, regardless of deformity of the scoring rings or angle of the arrow in the target to be scored the higher value. The status of any questionable arrows must be determined before removing any arrows from the target. If both score callers agree, the score called is final. If there is disagreement in the designated callers, a third caller from the group other than the archer whose arrow is in question will make the final call. If a questionable arrow exists in groups of three, the designated caller will make his call. If the archer whose arrow is in question does not agree or it is the caller’s arrow, he may have one of the scores make the final call. In all cases the third call is final.
3. Score callers will judge and score each arrow and call out the results to the scorekeepers. This will be recorded on the respective shooters scorecard. Running scores can be checked during the progression of the round to eliminate errors.
4. Both completed scorecards must be totaled and signed as correct by the score keepers and the shooter and turned in at the assigned area. Failure to sign scorecard will result in a NO SCORE for that round. Each shooting group must turn in their scorecards together (except when a shooter is permitted to makeup targets due to equipment failure or other approved leave of emergency). Any individual or group that does not turn in their cards before leaving the range (taking cards with them) will receive a score of “X” for that day’s score. “X” will be used instead of the number (0) on all cards, symbolizing “NO SCORE”.
F. Arrows passing through the face, but still in the target, will be pushed back and scored.
G. Any arrows deflected by a foreign object or miss fired will be scored where it lies. H. Any arrow embedded in the nock of another arrow (generally known as a “Robin
Hood”) will be scored the same as the arrow it struck and skewered, even if it falls to the ground and not in said target. If the arrow contacts another arrow and continues past the target it is scored a miss.
I. Tie scores for 1st, 2nd and 3rd will be a shoot off if 2 or more competitors for the place are present. If a shoot off can’t be completed, the tie breaker will be the most 14’s and 12’s (combined), 10’s, 8’s and so forth for 3D. Most X’s, highest scoring ring, next highest and so forth for target events.
J. A witnessed bounce-out will be re-shot. If an arrow is shot at a target and is suspected by the archer or the group as a pass-through, proceed by letting the next archer in order shoot. Archers not standing at the stake should always observe where the arrow strikes the target for this reason. When all shooters of a group have completed shooting, one (1) “scorer” may proceed to the target to see if there was a pass-through or if the arrow is embedded in the target. If it is embedded in the target, he will request the group to come to the target, and observe pushing back the arrow to score. If the arrow has passed-through, then the “scorer” has to return to the group so the archer can shoot another arrow at the target to score. As soon as possible, tell Range officials which target you had a pass-through on, so it can be replaced or repaired.
K. Arrows cannot be touched before scoring. If any shooter pulls arrows from a target before all arrows are officially recorded to the cards, that shooter automatically receives an “X” for said target.
L. No shooter will glass the target while standing at the shooting stake after shooting their arrow. Shooters may glass the target prior to shooting, but still be reminded of the time factor restrictions. After assuming their position at the stake, 2 minutes are allowed to shoot one (1) arrow. The shooter will receive a verbal warning from the group or range official for the first offense. Second warning will be a five point (5) penalty from target score, but no less than an “X”. Each subsequent offense will receive same (5) pt. penalty but no less than an “X”.
M. An arrow inadvertently dropped while transferring the arrow from the quiver to the bow in preparation of a shot or an arrow that falls or drops off the arrow rest to the ground may be recovered if within reach of the archer, (no assistance with any type of equipment) from the appropriate shooting stake. When a mechanical release is attached or fingers set-up is applied to the string and the arrow is propelled towards the target whether it is in reach or not it is a shot arrow.
EQUIPMENT N. EQUIPMENT FAILURE: An archer declaring equipment failure, verified by the group
may leave the range to report the equipment failure to a tournament official. Upon reporting to an official, the archer will have forty-five minutes (45) to make necessary repairs or replacement and re-sight the repaired equipment. The archer will then rejoin the original group and continue shooting the remaining targets. All targets missed will be shot under make up rules with a scorekeeper and witness. Any equipment failure that results in an arrow being released toward a target will be scored as it lies; a missed target may not be re-shot. Each archer is limited to one (1) equipment failure per tournament. If a second equipment failure occurs, the archer will remain with his or her group to act as a scorer or scorekeeper.
O. Binoculars and spotting scopes will be allowed. They may be checked at random tournament officials or individuals in your shooting group. You may ask to check theirs as well. If any marks are on the binoculars or scopes and can be used to calculate yardage they must be removed from play and deemed inappropriate. User can be subject to disqualification.
P. Range finders are only allowed if shooting a known distance class. Distances ranged from a range finder cannot be discussed during the competition, particularly to anyone that will or are competing in an unknown class. This applies to Competitors and guest. Range Officials not competing in or who has completed the Tournament may range a target for maximum yardage disputes only.
Q. An archer may not hold any equipment in line with the target for use as a range finder, and after an archer has set his/her sight, may not let down and re-set the sight.
R. The SCAA has a 300 ft. per second rule with a 3% variance for chronographs (309 ft) as measured by the official on-site chronographs. Each competitor understands and agrees that they may be required to shoot the designated tournament on-site chronographs. If the speed of that arrow is over 309 fps the competitor can make adjustments to correct the speed and reshoot an arrow to be documented on scorecard. The only time adjustments are allowed is before the start of the tournament. At any time during or when turning in scorecards a competitor may be asked to shoot an arrow through the chronograph. If the arrow exceeds 300 fps, 3
arrows will be shot and averaged for the official speed. A speed which exceeds 309 ft. per sec. will result in immediate disqualification of that round score with no exceptions.
S. The SCAA/ NFAA maximum draw-weight of a bow shall not exceed eighty pounds (80)lbs.
Tournament Distances: There will be five shooting stakes set with these color and maximum yards:
50 yds (orange)
40 yds (green)
30 yds (yellow)
25 yds (white)
20 yds (blue)
A. The maximum yardages are listed on the next page, SCAA 3D class & equipment
chart. Each club will do their best to adhere to the maximum yardages for each class. At times targets may be inadvertently set out too far. If a target is over maximum, the first archer must notify the hosting club prior to shooting, otherwise it must remain for all archers for the duration of the tournament.
B. Bowhunter stakes are to be placed in the shooting lane to give a clear line of sight to the target scoring areas.
Tournament Fees -Clubs may set their own entry fee, but must not exceed these fees. Adults-$15 Youth/Young Adult-$5 PeeWee/Cubs –Free Family-$35 Pro/Money-$25 Awards A. Individual clubs determine the type of awards that will be given at their tournaments. B. The following chart details how many awards should be given based on the number of
competitors in each class. C. A Money Award is awarded in the Open Pro class. The amount of award for this class
is based on 50% of the collected entry fees. The following chart details how much to award for each place.

Note: Circuit Shooters are not required to join the SCAA. SCAA 3D Champions must
be a current SCAA member. A Circuit member has the option of participating in the
guest class if he/she chooses not to join. Scores will transfer over for points.
Points for 3D Circuit Competition are awarded using the following formula: ➔ 50 points for tournament participation ➔ 1 point for each competitor you beat also participating in the 3D
circuit tournament of the same class Example: There were 20 people competing in Bow Novice at 1 of the 3D circuit
tournaments. Only 11 of these competitors were signed up for the 3D circuit
championship. Standing and points for the 3D Circuit Championship will be based off
of where you finished compared to other 11 3D circuit competitors and not the entire
field of 20.
