What is a 420 target? -
When you register, we will send you
some targets. This target, copyrighted by Creekwood Archery in 2008 a
420
TARGET
named because 420 points is the
maximum score a archer can achieve. The target is one that keeps challenging the
archer no matter what his ability is, and allows him to win even if he has shot
an arrow he is not happy with. It is a target which can be shot as a single spot
or a five spot target, your choice.

The five spot
420 target
there are 5 scoring circles with 3 scoring rings in each circle: The outer blue
ring has a score of 4 points. The arrow must touch the blue ring to score. The
shading inside this blue ring has no different scoring value and is only there
to draw your attention to the center of the entire target. The grey center has a
score of 5 points and the arrow must touch it to score 5 points. The white “X”
ring inside the center grey circle has a score of 6 points. The arrow must touch
any part of the line making the “X” ring. The last scoring possibility is an
Inside “X” which is accomplished by the arrow being inside the line making the
white “X” ring without touching it, thus being called an Inside “X” which has a
score of 7 points. The "X" ring is smaller than a regular
NFAA 5 spot. On the 5 spot, only 1 arrow per scoring circle is allowed. If more
than 1 arrow is in a circle the lowest one is counted.

The single spot
420 target
there are 5 scoring rings:
The outer blue ring
has a score of 1 point. The arrow must be in or touch the blue ring. The second
most outer blue ring including the outer most white ring has a score of 2
points. The arrow must be in the second most outer blue ring or touch the white
ring surrounding it. The shading inside this blue ring has no different scoring
value and is only there to draw your attention to the center of the entire
target. The third most outer blue ring including the outer most white ring has a
score of 3 points. The arrow must be in the third most outer blue ring or touch
the white ring surrounding it. The shading inside this blue ring has no
different scoring value and is only there to draw your attention to the center
of the entire target. The inner most blue ring including the white ring outside
of it has a score of 4 points. The arrow must be in the inner most blue ring or
touch the white ring surrounding it. The shading inside this blue ring has no
different scoring value and is only there to draw your attention to the center
of the entire target. The grey center has a score of 5 points and the arrow must
touch it to score 5 points. The white “X” ring inside the center grey circle has
a score of 6 points. The arrow must touch any part of the line making the “X”
ring. The last scoring possibility is an Inside “X” which is accomplished by the
arrow being inside the line making the white “X” ring without touching it, thus
being called an Inside “X” which has a score of 7 points.
The "X" ring is smaller than a regular NFAA 5 spot. If more than 5
arrows are shot, your 5 lowest scoring arrows are counted.

The target is shot in three
total games consisting of four ends of five arrows each for a total of 60
arrows. Two rounds of practice are shot before the scoring begins. Scoring goes
like this: First you call your total number of “X”s including “IX”s, then you
call the total number of “IX”s, and then you call the total score (5’s & 4’s for
the 5 spot target or 5’s, 4’s, 3’s, 2’s, and 1’s for the single spot target).
The addition of those three numbers gives you the score for that end. A perfect
end would be 5 “IX” or a total of 35 points. A perfect game would be 20 “IX” or
140 points. A perfect TARGET or 3 games would be 420.
LIFE IS GOOD !
At the end of the game you
total three numbers. The first one is your total numerical score which can be a
at best 300 points (60 arrows times 5 points each). The second number you add in
is the total number of “Xs” you shot which can be at best 60 points. And finally
the last number you add in is the total number of “Inside Xs” which at best
could be another 60 points.
Numerical score 300
Total “Xs” 60
Total “Inside X 60
(Because the “Inside Xs” are counted twice as “Xs” and “Inside Xs”, that’s how
they achieve 7 point status.)
420
With the current NFAA 300 score 5 spot or single spot target when a good archer
shoots a 4, he knows he can’t win unless all the other good shooters follow
suit. With the
420 TARGET
a 4 is not the end of your day at all. The best man or women who shots the best
that day will be the winner. Everyone says archery is 95% mental and the
420 TARGET
is a mentally friendly target, which keeps challenging you no matter what your
ability is.
As we always say at Creekwood Archery,
"SHOOT 'EM IN THE MIDDLE".
