NASP Targets for School Archery Programs

The official NASP target face measures 80 centimeters (about 31.5 inches) in diameter, with concentric scoring rings used for tournament and practice scoring. This size is standardized across NASP-sanctioned school programs so that scoring is consistent whether shooting indoors or outdoors.

Polypropylene target faces are ideal for high-volume school use because they are weather-resistant, durable enough to take thousands of shots, and easy to wipe clean. Heavy paper stock faces are a lower-cost option for tournament scoring and single-use practice sessions where fresh scoring rings are needed.

Yes. NASP-approved bag targets like the NASP Youth Target and Eternity School Target are designed specifically for field points only, feature easy arrow removal, and are rated for bows 50 lbs and under, making them appropriate for beginner and youth archers in classroom settings.

No. NASP program targets and faces are engineered exclusively for field-point arrows fired from standard NASP-approved bows. They are not rated for broadheads, outserts, or high-speed crossbow bolts, and using unapproved ammunition can damage the target and void its intended safety design.

Polypropylene NASP target faces and replacement covers are built to take thousands of shots before needing replacement, while paper scoring faces are typically replaced each session or tournament. Purchasing separate replacement covers extends the usable life of the underlying target frame significantly.
