IFAA 3D practice targets

IFAA Animal Round — three arrows shot from progressively closer distances; only the first hit scores, with descending values per arrow. On our face the 11 + 10 rings together count as the high-kill zone, 8-ring is kill, and the body silhouette outside 8 is vital.

Print tips

  • Print at 100% / actual size — "Fit to page" or "Scale to fit" will break the calibrated distance.
  • A2 too big for your printer? Use your PDF viewer's "Poster" or "Tile large pages" mode to split the page across multiple A4 sheets.
  • The Recommended distance printed in each PDF's footer reflects the inferred print scale of that specific file — verify with a tape measure on a test arrow before counting your group.

Beginner · Colored zones

Filled scoring zones in red / blue / gold so each ring reads at a glance. Best for first sessions, kids, and form work where you want fast visual feedback on hit placement.

Advanced · Line-marked zones

Outline-only zones in gold / white / gray. Cleaner shooting impression, closer to a real foam-target look — best once you know the zones and want minimal visual interference.
