Historical background
Typically, there are three sets of these targets at a specific distance. The archer shoots each target from three different positions (standing in front, kneeling, and with their back turned).
The archer shoots 5 arrows from each position. This shooting is performed twice (2 rounds = 90 arrows to be shot). All competitions are shot in a predetermined order, without breaks, checks, or practice.
The maximum score is 900 points, with 10/8/5 points awarded for scoring (inner to outer ring). The course is a three-zone layout, with a specially enlarged central zone.
