Archery score

[edit]

Anyone know how you get 699 on 72 arrows with only 50 tens? 50*10+22*9 is 698. o.O Lejman (talk) 18:08, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You don't. Im actually had 51 10s (22 Xs is correct), with 21 9s. I've changed it, with a source to the WA results system that shows every arrow (addition of 23 10s in 1st half plus 28 10s in 2nd half gives 51). -- Jonel (Speak to me) 20:48, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, that explains it. I note that in the link several archers having more tens than listed (Kim Bub-Min has 52 instead of 50, Larry Godrey has 37 instead of 36), but I'm happy all the scores are at least theoretically possible now. ^^ -- Lejman (talk) 03:49, 28 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Distance from target

[edit]

The article never mentions how far the archers stand from the target. Isn't that a defining characteristic of archery events? -ErinHowarth (talk) 23:40, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
