1. Set-up
1.1 The track shall be 90m long (or 150m for R1-2-5) between the start and finish lines.
1.1.1 As standard the track is straight. However, one/multiple curves in the track are
permitted, where the radius of any curve (measured to the inside track boundary) is
greater than or equal to 15m. Targets must be on the inside of any curve and care
must be taken that target placement does not present a hazard nor invalidate the
angle of the shot.
1.1.2 There should be barriers on both sides of the track for its full length.
1.1.3 There should be adequate run-in / run-out space at either end of the track, as
per General & Competition rules #8.5 .
1.2 The start and finish lines must be clearly marked. Where electronic timing is being
used the timing gates will be located here.
1.3 The targets shall be set at the positions indicated in the diagrams and the specific
rules for single, double and serial shot.
1.3.1 They shall be set back 7m from the edge of the track for a round target (1.4a) or
8m from the edge of the track for a square target (1.4b)
1.3.2 Targets shall be set so the centre is at 90cm +\- 10cm above the ground, or
lower. Measurements are relative to ground level within the track, ie. the target
height should be adjusted appropriately if the ground slopes between the track and
the location of the target.
1.3.3 Targets shall be angled on the horizontal plane so that the target faces the
position indicated on the track diagram, and inclined on the vertical plane so that the
face is perpendicular to an archer mounted on an average size horse.
1.4 The target faces shall be either:
a. A round target face with a diameter of 80cm, divided into 5 concentric circular zones
(ie. a standard WA80(FITA80) target), set 7m from the edge of the track.
b. An 80 x 80cm square target face, divided into 5 evenly spaced concentric zones, set
8m from the edge of the track.
1.4.1 The zones are concentric circles / squares with a diameter/width of 16cm, 32cm,
48cm, 64cm and 80cm.

2. Procedure
2.1 The Raid standard rules event consists of a set of 6 runs comprised of a mix of two or
three of the following: single shot, double shot and serial shot. The serial shot discipline
may be either a triple shot or a five shot course.
2.1.1 There are predetermined sets for the Raid style and the grading table details
which may be used towards S or HA grades. These include R1-2, R1-3, R1-2-3, R2-3,
