Testing Requirements: Picture ID will be required for all adult participants. The participant must provide five arrows equipped with broadheads (minimum of two cutting edges, 7/8" or greater at the widest point, fixed-blade or mechanical). Manufacturer-provided practice broadheads are acceptable; no field points. Broadheads must be covered or in a quiver while being transported. The test consists of five shots at 20 yards. Three of five arrows must strike the vital area of a life size deer silhouette.
