archery target
An archery target is a specially designed surface used to stop and display the progress of arrows fired during archery practice or competitions. It typically features concentric rings with different scoring zones, helping archers gauge accuracy. The center, called the bullseye, offers the highest score, with scores decreasing outward. Targets are made from materials like foam, straw, or layered paper to absorb impacts and prolong usability. Their size, shape, and design vary based on the type of archery being practiced, such as target, field, or bowhunting. Properly designed targets ensure safety, durability, and accurate scoring.
