Łucznictwo IFAA

IFAA (International Field Archery Association) is the international body for field archery, encompassing several distinct round types — Field Round (target faces), Hunter Round (hunter faces with ring scoring), and Animal Round (animal silhouette face with 3-arrow first-hit scoring). The Animal Round is the IFAA round most relevant to 3D-style practice.

Szczegóły

The IFAA Animal Round uses a three-arrow shooting sequence at progressively closer ranges. Only the first arrow that hits the silhouette scores. Each arrow has its own descending value matrix: 1st arrow 20 / 18 / 16, 2nd arrow 14 / 12 / 10, 3rd arrow 8 / 6 / 4 — corresponding to high-kill, kill, and vital zones respectively. A miss on all three arrows scores zero. The system rewards first-shot precision: a clean first-arrow high-kill is 20 points, but waiting for the third arrow caps you at 8 even with a centre hit.

On our scaled practice face the four-ring geometry (11 / 10 / 8 / body) maps to the IFAA three-zone Animal Round as: 11 + 10 rings together = high-kill, 8-ring = kill, body silhouette outside the 8 = vital. Off-silhouette = miss. Practising the 3-arrow workflow with this face trains the IFAA timing discipline at home-printable distances.

IFAA also runs a Hunter Round on a different face with flat ring scoring, and a Field Round on standard target-style faces (not animal silhouettes). The full rule set lives in the IFAA Book of Rules.

How does IFAA Animal Round 3-arrow scoring work?: You shoot three arrows from progressively closer distances. Only the first arrow that hits the silhouette scores points. The point value depends on which arrow hit (1st gets the highest values, 3rd the lowest) and which zone (high-kill / kill / vital). A first-arrow high-kill scores 20 points; a third-arrow vital scores 4. A complete miss across all three arrows scores zero.
How is the IFAA face different from ASA / IBO?: IFAA Animal Round faces have three scoring zones (high-kill / kill / vital) rather than IBO/WA-3D's four (11 / 10 / 8 / body) or ASA's six (14 / 12-lower / 12-upper / 10 / 8 / body). On our scaled practice prints we keep the IBO 4-ring geometry but apply the IFAA scoring rules — 11 + 10 rings together count as the high-kill zone.
