Fita Rounds

Sorry for the delay, now I will finally tell you about the regular fita round.  For this round you shoot 72 arrows for the day, and the next day is a different type of round like ORs, or Elimination.  These rounds are normally used for big national events so you can do all the different events in one week.  This part is usually for the placing in the second part so it doesn't count toward your rank as much.   You shoot two rounds the day of the fita, both consisting of 36 arrows, and there is a lunch break in between.  This event usually takes between 6-8 hours depending on the archers speed.  This is including the hour lunch break.  During this lunch break archers like to talk to each other and find each others score.  Knowing each others score shows the archers where they are placed and how much better they have to do so they can rank up.  This tournament is not really for the placing but more so you can strategically place yourself for the next days event.
