In clout archery, the objective is to shoot arrows at a target placed at a set distance away. The scoring is based on where the arrow lands in relation to the center of the target. To score points, the archer must hit as close to the center of the target as possible.
There are two main ways to shoot clout archery: freestyle and barebow. In freestyle shooting, the archer can use any type of bow and any type of sights or stabilizers. In barebow shooting, the archer can only use a recurve or longbow and cannot use any type of sights or stabilizers.
To start, the archer will set up their equipment and prepare for their shot. They will then take aim and release the arrow. After releasing the arrow, they will watch to see where it hits on the target so that they can make adjustments for their next shot.
