·        Each archer has 3 arrows.

·        Pen and paper for scoring.

Game Details

·        Archers are divided into two teams, one is the fox and the other, the geese. If there are an odd number of archers, one will have to shoot twice.

·        An archer from each team goes up to the shooting line. The archer from the geese team shoots their 3 arrows at their target first.

·        The archer from the fox team then shoots at their target and tries and hit the same colours scored by the goose.

·        For every colour that’s matched by the fox, the goose arrow is removed from their target. Any remaining arrows in the goose target scores (1 for white to 5 for gold).

·        After the arrows are collected, the range captain resumes the game and the next archer from each team then shoots. Once all the team members have shot, the total goose score is added.

·        The roles of the two teams are then reversed. The team with the highest final score is the winner.

·        If an arrow cuts the line, it is the higher scoring colour that counts.
