Our first 252 round done!

The Metric 252 round is a progression challenge where archers shoot 36 arrows at a single, chosen distance to achieve a baseline score of 252.

Format and Rules
* Target & Scoring: It is shot on a 122 cm target face. Scoring follows standard 5-zone Imperial scoring: Gold (9), Red (7), Blue (5), Black (3), and White (1).
* Arrows: Archers shoot 6 sighter (practice) arrows followed immediately by 36 scored arrows (6 ends of 6 arrows each).
* Progression: It can be shot at multiple distances (usually 20m, 30m, 40m, 50m, 60m, 80m, or 100m).
* Awards: To officially earn a club distance badge, you generally must hit the 252 score on two separate occasions. Lower target thresholds are usually permitted for barebow and longbow archers to accommodate for the lack of sights.
