http://www.brownwoodbowhunters.org/

scroll down to bottom of the page, and there is a map. Hope this helps, and see ya Sunday!

[Let's go Brandon!]

Ok, here's the down and dirty version.

The hiways marked in red on the map are the main routes into Brownwood from any direction. Most of you from West of Brownwood will want to take 377 south, go all the way past town through and out of town, you will eventually see a huge 3M and Kohler plants on your left. Just past Kohler, you will want to turn left onto 45 a.k.a. "the access road".

Continue down 45 approx 3 miles, veer right when you reach the intersection where 45 turns toward Richland Springs, on that corner is Richmon Farm supply...can't miss it.

Once you make that turn, go south on 45 for another 2 miles past the landfill. The range will be on the right just as you top the hill.


If you are coming in via Hwy 183 from the north.

You have a choice... When you get to the first traffic light in Early(mall to your left) you can turn right into Brownwood, take a left at 377 and follow the first set of directions.

Or you can turn left there until you get the intersection of 183, (will be the Early PD on your left & Early ISD on your right) Turn right at that intersection and continue for approx 2-3 miles, turn right on 2167, stay on 2167 until you see the Natl Guard Armory and Richmon Farms Supply, turn left onto 45, 2 miles, you're there.

If you are coming from any other direction, pretty much the same.

Black n White X = Richmon Farm Supply

The host club or organization has the right and responsibility to delay or cancel a tournament in case of severe weather.

range must be set up for the Top Gun Team Challenge. These ranges may be used for other events, but the Top Gun participants must count the score from their first visit to this range as their Top Gun Team Challenge score.
Forming a Top Gun Team:
Each competition class is assigned a Class Assessment Rating (CAR) and teams are assembled based on their Class Assessment Rating Total (CART):
•
“CAR” - Class Assessment Rating: Each class has been assigned a CAR of 2 through 6:
CAR 2: Youth Boys, Youth Girls, Women’s Hunter, Bow Novice, Traditional
CAR 3: Senior Women, Super Senior, Limited, Women’s Open
CAR 4: Young Adult, Senior, Open C, Hunter
CAR 5: Unlimited, Known 45, Open A, Open B
CAR 6: Semi Pro
•
“CART” - Class Assessment Rating Total:
1.
CART may not exceed 14
2.
Only one team member may be from CAR 5 or 6
3.
No more than two team members may be from the same CAR in groups 2, 3 or 4
•
“CART” Examples:
1.
Unlimited (5), Senior (4), Women’s Open (3), Bow Novice (2) = CART of 14
2.
Open A (5), Super Senior (3), Super Senior (3), Women’s Hunter (2) = CART of 13
3.
Semi-Pro (6), Young Adult (4), Women’s Hunter (2), Bow Novice (2) = CART of 14
Team Registration & Substitutions:
Teams must complete and submit a Top Gun Team Registration Form that will be forwarded to the ASA along with a $20.00 fee. The Top Gun Team Registration Form must be completed before competing at a State Qualifier tournament. All team members must be current ASA members in good standing when the Top Gun Team Registration is sent to the ASA Office, and a competitor may only be a member of one team. Team members need not reside in the state where the team is formed, but must live in the region and compete at the same State Championship Competition as the other team members. Substitutions after a team qualifies at the State Championship Competition are only allowed due to medical or family problems, and are subject to review and approval by the Top Gun Committee prior to the ASA Classic.
The Regions:
The Federation is divided into five Regions based on ASA membership. The Regions are defined geographically despite the fact that states may be positioned otherwise.

North East: Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Connecticut, Massachusetts
•
Eastern: Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, Maryland, Delaware
•
Southern: Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana
•
Western: Arkansas, Texas, Missouri, Oklahoma, all western states
State Qualifiers and Championships:
At State Qualifiers and Championships that include individual known distance competition, the Top Gun team score consists of the combined individual scores of all of the team members. If known distance individual competition is not included, the Top Gun Team Challenge Competition consists of the combined score for each member’s regular unknown distance round competition, plus a round of five known distance targets at Qualifiers and ten known distance targets at State Championships. Team members may not compete as a group in either competition. Team entry fee for Qualifiers is $20.00 and for State Championships is $40.00, along with each team member registering and paying to shoot in their individual class. Payback at State Qualifiers and Championships is 50% cash payback to top 20% of the field. The winning team from each State Championship receives plaques that are awarded at the Classic.
National & Regional Championships at the Classic:
Competition at the Classic consists of the combined team score for each member’s full twenty target unknown round on Saturday, plus a ten target round of known distance targets. All team members compete at 8:00 AM Saturday on ten known distance targets, and then on their regularly assigned range for their Classic individual class competition. The team with the highest over-all score is crowned the National Champion, and the team from each region with the highest total score is crowned Regional Champion. The total of 12-rings and 14-rings is used to break ties in total score for the Regional or National Championship. Should a tie not be broken by the total of 12-rings and 14-rings, the one-arrow closest to the center of the 12-ring tie-breaker procedure will be used.
Classic Tournament Fees and Awards:
The team entry fee for the Classic is $40.00, along with each team member registering and paying to shoot in their individual class. The National Championship team receives 50% of the team entry fees, and each of the Regional Champion teams receives 10% of the team entry fees. All members of the Regional Champions receive belt buckles. Each member of the National Championship Team receives a Top Gun Team Champion trophy, National Champion belt buckle and jacket.

what are the rules on what can and can't be used as far as equipment?
I have never been to a shoot and am thinking about going to this one.
My computer will not let me view the rules page on the texasfederation site.

Class definitions and rules: Straight from the ASA website.

CLASS DEFINITIONS AND RULES:
All “Open” classes may use any compound or recurve bow, sight, release, stabilizer or equipment unless specifically
prohibited in any other part of these rules, or by a ruling of the Competition Committee. Overdraws do not designate shoot
class or shooting style. Sight type and/or release type is the determining factors for all non-Open classes. In Limited
classes, only gloves, tabs, or fingers are acceptable, or a chew strap (tab held by the teeth) may be used in place of
fingers. ASA reserves the right to review any equipment / accessories and determine its suitability for competition. The
following equipment / accessories are prohibited in all classes: (1) Broadheads or any other point or tip not intended for
target use; (2) Retaining mechanisms which allow the bow to be mechanically held in the drawn position; (3) Crossbows;
(4) Laser sights; (5) Devices or an outside agency (including stabilizer bar or prop stick) that allows the mass weight of the
bow to be relieved from either arm while shooting. ASA retains the right to waive certain equipment restrictions or
shooting rules as they may apply under specific circumstances to physically challenged competitors.

CLASSES:
All earnings requirements for classes are based on a shooters ASA Pro/Am earnings and year-end bonuses from their
individual class competition. Paybacks and bonuses exclude the Friday Team Shoot, Known Distance Shoot, and ASA
Federation paybacks. All classes shown include the maximum unmeasured yardage and arrow speed.
ASA reserves the right at any time to assign a registered shooter to a higher competition class based on knowledge of the
competitor’s prior archery experience, performance in other archery competitions, or the individual’s established
competition level in another organization. If, for example, someone shooting ASA for the first time feels that they are
entitled to compete in the Open “C” class, but their previous archery experience, or competition status in another
organization, confirms that they are not a novice, then ASA reserves the right to require that individual to compete in a
higher Open class. Anyone who competes using a compound bow as a professional or semi-professional in other
nationally sanctioned 3-D or field events must compete in the respective ASA Pro class. In addition, anyone who receives
sponsor support that exceeds $2,000.00 per year in products, equipment, services, or cash is required to shoot in semipro

consideration for assignment to a lower class must be submitted in writing for approval by the Competition Committee
AGE REQUIREMENTS: Youth: All youth classes with an age requirement will be based on the age of the shooter as of
February 1st of the current year. A youth may request to be allowed to compete in the next older age group subject to a
