In Clout Archery, There a 15 meter diameter targets, Consisting of 5 circular scoring zones, These are outlined on the ground. As to say, the innermost circle is worth 5 points, scores will decrease by one point from by one point on the out most circles. Each of the competing Archers will shoot 36 arrows at the target in question. They do this from 165 Meters for Men, 125 Meters for woman.
Scoring zones are defined by maximum radii from the flag pole. Each arrow scores points depending on which scoring zone it enters the ground in. An arrow embedded in the flag pole is counted as being in the highest scoring zone. If an arrow is laying on the ground, it is considered to be in the scoring zone in which its point lies.
The scoring zones may be marked on the ground. Where this is not practical, a non-stretch rope or chain marked with the radii of the scoring zones is attached to the flag pole and swept around it to determine which arrows are in which zones.
A designated person collects the arrows in each zone, sorts them into sets, and lays them on the ground. Each archer in turn points to his or her arrows and calls out the scores in descending order.
A single clout round consists of three dozen arrows, shot in ends of 6 arrows. Tournaments typically consist of a double clout round, in which a total of six dozen arrows is shot.
