The 252 Improvement Awards

To shoot at longer distances with confidence and avoid holding up other archers, it’s recommended for an archer to earn two 252 Improvement Awards at the required length.

These awards serve as a progression towards shooting at longer distances and reduce the need to search for missed arrows.
