Pins

During your time in the sport of archery, if you are in a club and under 18 you are eligible for JOAD pins.  There are many different kinds of Joad pics from almost every type of shooting style.  There is barebow, recurve, and compound.  In addition to these catagories they have outdoor and indoor pins.  Each type on a different color laniard.  For recurve there is a blue for outdoor and a yellow laniard for indoor.  There are eight pins for each laniard that can be for advanced through beginners but for the top level competators they have three special pins.  The bronze, silver, and gold olympian pins.  If you have shot the score to achieve these top three pins you can't go to your club to award them but you have to do a whole process of getting coaches and judges signatures to turn your scorecard into USAA.  USAA will then send these pins toyour club along with other awards for achieving these top level pins.  Some prizes include jackets, plaques, and signed documents.  There are all kimds of awards to achieve in archery.
