Para Archers:

  • Please note on the registration if you are Para Open or Para W1 category, and if you have an agent, need one, or need special arrangements. All information on classification AND separate shooting category can be found here: https://www.usarchery.org/resources/national-classification-policies-and-procedures-200123150754.pdf

  • Please note that classification category is NOT the shooting category. There is NO Para category for any 50+, 60+, or 70+ Category. Paras shoot Senior and below, depending on age.

Trad Categories: Trads will be registered as Barebow or Recurve since USA Archery does not have Trad categories for outdoor tournaments.

Fixed Pins: Fixed Pin Category is only for JOAD/Youth archers, U21 and below. All adult (Senior and above) Fixed pins will be registered as Compound category.

SHOOTING CONSIDERATIONS/RULES

This event will be a Double 72-arrow USA Archery-sanctioned event and will follow USA Archery Rules, World Archery Rules, and USA Archery dress code.  

We will shoot one round of 72 arrows each day. 

Archers will be assigned a target and will be scoring together as a bale. 3-4 archers will be scoring together. Archers should be familiar with tournament scoring. We will be using electronic scoring, so a unique cell phone number will be required for each archer, If some do not have cell phones, please let Liz (the tournament director) know so we can set up a tablet (youth archers only). Only one cell phone per bale will be needed, so some archers will not need to utilize their phones. However, we will not know until the day of the tournament who will be electronically scoring on your bale.

No sky-drawing. Non-archers (including coaches and parents) are not allowed down-range without specific permission from the Tournament Director.

For Para archers, if an advocate is needed, or you will be providing an advocate, please note that on the registration form. Keep in mind: the archer will remain at the line (or under an umbrella or tent for sun/rain protection) during scoring if they have an advocate.

There will be concessions available during the 2024 event.

OVERVIEW

The West Michigan Archery Center (WMAC) is an archery education and practice center, focused on introducing people to the sport of archery, and on developing fundamental and advanced archery skills for archers in West Michigan and beyond. The event will take place at the West Michigan Archery Center in Rockford, Michigan. Archers will register with all available info noted (age class, bow type, Para type, etc.). Archers will shoot a total of 72 scoring arrows per day (six-arrow ends using targets noted above).

Ron Carr Memorial
Shooting Sports - Pistol

In fond memory of former Grand Rapids Rifle & Pistol Club President Ron Carr (3/22/1956 - 10/25/2021) who left the club far better than he found it. His contribution to the club, junior shooting sports, and the State Games has been immense and will be everlasting. Those that competed with or against him will never forget his ever-present smile, no matter the result. Ron's passion for precision shooting challenged us all to pursue that ever elusive perfect shot, even in the face of adversity.
