Scoring:
Gold=5, Red=4, Blue=3, Black=2, White=1.
An arrow/bolt that is touching the line between two colors (or the outer line) counts as the higher valued color; no color showing between arrow/bolt and line. Arrows/bolt passing through or falling out (bounce off) count as 3 unless their actual score can be verified. Archers may count and record their own scores but the Marshal In Charge should submit them.
Archers must declare that they are shooting for score at the beginning of their Royal Round and then shoot all of the targets consecutively.
No restriction is placed on the number of Royal Rounds that may be shot on any given day. However, only the three highest scoring rounds, per bow type, per archer, can be submitted and will be counted for a single day.
For Royal Round scores to be eligible for submission to the Scorekeeper, they must be witnessed and recorded by a warranted Trimarian archery Ranger.
Royal Rounds may be scored anywhere, anytime, a Trimarian archery Ranger and at least one other archer must be present to witness and record the score.
