I posted once before on the new X ring counting as 11 points.....Most people said they were subtracting dropped points from 330 instead of 300

I contacted the IBO Office asked them...The responce I got was that if a person shot 29-10' s and nine of those were 11' s and one 8 was shot thier score would be a 309. Not a 328, which is what you would get if you used 330 to subtract the dropped points

Ken, from the IBO is the one that explained it this way to me.

Would someone explain subtracting dropped points?

This is what I see

9 x 11 = 99

20 x 10 =200

1 x 8 = 8

total 307

awingnut,

I get the same thing. I' m thinking subtract dropped scores means starting from the maximum possible score and subtracting the respective points below the 11 ring. Sometimes I overlook the obvious and want to ensure this is not one of them.

wingnut has it right. It doesn' t work out to 309, 307.
TJ, you seem to be counting 11' s as 1 point bonuses. There is no " bonus," just an 11, 10 8, 5, and 0.
You stated, " 29 - 10' s and nine of those were 11' s." Well, it was actually 20 - 10' s and 9 - 11' s.
New2, subtracting is just a different way of keeping score. For example, if your at the first of 30 targets and you shoot an 8, you score is now 327. At the next target, you shoot a 5, your score is now 322; the next target you shoot 11, your score remains 322, etc.
It' s just like shooting an indoor 300 round: every time you shoot a 4 you subtract one from 300.

RustyWreck, I think your wrong the only way you would would have a 327 with one eight out of ten targets is if the first 29 were all 11' s, then one eight....Then your score would be 228.

If the first 29 were only 10' s then one eight your score would be 298. The only way you can get the 330 is with all 11' s, So in order to keep score your surpose to use 300 as possible points and any 11' s count as 1 extra point on the final score..

awingnut is correct in the score posted, but if you use 330 its not.

New2Archery

Thanks Rustywreck. Makes sense now.

awingnut

To get a 330 score you would have to hit 30 11' s. You said 9 11,s

328 score would give you 28 11,s that if the other 2 arrow were 10,s


330
- 307
------
23 point drop

I hope this helps you.

Tj, check your math: 29x11=319. 8x1=8. 319+8=327.
My friend, your just not getting it. There are no bonus points. If a course has 30 targets, the best possible score would be 330. Not 300 plus bonus points.
If, on a 30 target course, you were to count down, you would start at 330, not 300. Actually, you can do it any way you wish, but it' s either going to be wrong or more difficult.
I' ll bet you an ice cream cone that there is no " Bonus" column on the IBO score cards.

Rustywreck, I said 20x 10 =200th Nine 11' s which is 9 extra points,added the 200 is now 299with the 8 shot now make it a 307, which is what you would get if you used 300as the base score with each 11 counting as 1 " extra" point. If you use 330 as the base score you get the 328 you were referring to.



Like I said From what they told me at the IBO was that the score was still 300 with the 10X you had a possible 330.....But you still use 300 as your base score adding any extra points along the way from the x ring wich is 1 extra point for each x ring you get.

Im not trying to start a contraversy but I think this whole x ring counting as 11 has caused some confusion when it comes to scoreing...........I dont think Im the one that is confuse either..

This is how they explained it to me...IF you dont understand what Im trying to get across maybe talking to the people at the IBO will help .
