How does the archery get mark?
Archery is scored based on a ten-point system in which each circle of the target represents a point value. The centre of the target, the smallest circle, has a value of ten (10) points. The circle surrounding the centre has a value of nine (9) and so on until the outermost and largest circle, which has a value of one (1) point. Any shot outside the circles is a miss, with value zero. An archer shoots an end of three (3) arrows, and every circle the arrows hit gives the archer the associated number of points. The points are added up to give the running total score, and once ten (10) ends are fired, the value of each of the thirty (30) shots (3x10 = 30) are added together for a total score out of 300 possible points.

How do you re-string a compound bow?
To re-string a compound bow, you must first get the bow limbs to bend. The easiest way (and the safest) is to place the bow, with the string above the bow (it will look like a smile) in what is called a "bow press". Once the bow is in the press, it is pushed down to bend the limbs ("compressed"), causing the string to go slack; the string is now removed from the cams and the new string is installed. De-compress the bow and remove it from the press.
The bow press can be somewhat expensive to purchase, so it may be best to take the bow to an archery shop and have the string replaced there. Due to the amount of pressure required to bend the bow's limbs, as well as the need to keep them bent while changing the string, attempting to restring a compound bow without the proper equipment is definitely not recommended.
