Every arrow counts. Log it, watch yourself get better.
This practice log is a free archery scoring app built by Archery Ranges USA for target, 3D, traditional and horseback archers. There is nothing to install and nothing to pay: it runs in the browser on any phone, tablet or computer. Pick your bowstyle, pick the round you shot, then either enter a quick total or plot every arrow exactly where it landed on the target face.
You can try the whole tool at the top of this page without an account. When you are ready to save, a free profile keeps your complete history, builds your trends and streak, feeds your ARC Rating, and puts your verified scores in the running for records at your local range.
Pick your bowstyle, pick the round, type your total, save. Round suggestions match your bow, so the round you shot is usually one tap away.
Press and hold the target face and a magnifier loupe follows your finger, so you can place each arrow exactly where it hit. Ring values and end totals are worked out for you.
Two sparklines track your score per arrow and your group size across sessions, so you can see groups tightening even before the totals move.
Plot 5 sessions in 7 days to unlock your miss map: how often you drift high, low, left or right, and how often you find the middle.
A practice streak counter and a 14 day calendar make consistency visible, and each logged session earns daily points on the community leaderboard.
Download your complete practice history as a CSV file any time: dates, rounds, bowstyles, distances, totals and notes, ready for any spreadsheet.
Paper scorecards get wet, blow off the shooting line, and end up crumpled in a quiver pocket. Worse, they never add anything up: a season of scorecards in a drawer tells you nothing about whether you are actually improving. A digital archery score sheet remembers everything for you. Every session records the date, the round, your bowstyle, the distance in metres or yards, your total, and as much arrow by arrow detail as you want to capture, plus notes about wind, tuning or how the session felt.
Because it is all in one place, the log can do what paper never could: chart your score per arrow over time, measure how tight your groups are getting, show which way you tend to miss, and export the whole history as a CSV whenever you or your coach want to dig deeper. You can attach a photo of your target to any session, and a video for scores you want to put toward a record claim.
3D rounds do not score on a flat target face, so this log does not pretend they do. Pick a 3D round and choose from 15 animal silhouettes, from whitetail deer, turkey and coyote up to elk, caribou and bison. Tap where your arrow hit the animal and the scoring zones do the rest: IBO and Canadian style rounds count an 11 ring inside the 10, while ASA rounds count a 12, and the log follows the round you picked.
Over time your zone distribution shows how often you hit the top zone, the 10, the 8, or the body, which is exactly the feedback a 3D shooter needs before tournament season. Horseback archers are covered too, with IHAA rounds scored on their own five zone system.
Every range page in the Archery Ranges USA directory has a record board, and your practice log is how you get on it. Records are tracked per round and per bowstyle, so a barebow archer is never competing against a compound score, and an indoor round is never compared to an outdoor one.
What makes these records worth chasing is verification. A score on its own is just a claim, so the log uses three levels. A session you record by yourself stays unverified. Check in at the range page on the day you shoot and the session saves as verified, which makes it eligible for a provisional record. Then another archer who checked in at the same range that day can confirm your score with a witness code, which upgrades it to an official record. Video evidence can ride along with a record claim and shows as a badge on the board.
Not a record chaser? The Range Regular crown celebrates the other kind of dedication: it goes to the archer with the most checked-in practice days at a range over the last 90 days. Show up, log your arrows, and the crown can be yours.
The ARC Rating condenses your recent scores for a round into a single number where lower is better: a perfect round scores 0, and shooting X's can even push it below zero. Instead of comparing raw totals, you watch one figure drop as your shooting improves. It starts as a provisional estimate and firms up once you have around 8 recent scores logged. It is our own rating, built for tracking your own progress, and you can also explore it with the free ARC Rating calculator on this site.
The best archery scoring app is the one you will actually open at the range, so this log is built to work with a bow in one hand: nothing to download, nothing to pay, and a session takes under a minute to record. It covers indoor and outdoor target rounds, 3D rounds on animal silhouettes, and even horseback archery rounds, plots arrows on a real target face, and tracks your trends automatically. You can try every part of it on this page before creating a free profile.
Yes. The practice log is a web app, so it runs in the browser on iPhone, Android, tablets and computers, with nothing to install and no app store account. The arrow plotting is designed for touch: press and hold to place an arrow, and a magnifier loupe keeps the rings visible so your finger never hides the target.
No. The full form on this page works without signing in: pick a bowstyle and a round, then enter a quick score or plot your arrows on the target. A free profile is only needed to save the session and track your history, and if you fill in a session first, what you entered is kept while you sign up so you do not lose it.
Both organizations score 3D archery on life-size animal targets, but their top rings differ: IBO and Canadian style rounds use an 11 ring inside the 10, while ASA rounds use a 12. The log handles both styles: pick the round you shot, pick the animal from 15 silhouettes, and tap where each arrow landed. The zone and score are worked out for you, and your zone distribution builds up over time.
A range record is the best verified score for a specific round and bowstyle at a specific range in the Archery Ranges USA directory. A score saves as a provisional record when you were checked in at that range on the day you shot it, and it becomes official when another archer who was checked in at the same range witnesses it. Record claims can also carry video evidence, which shows as a badge on the range page.
The Range Regular crown goes to the archer with the most checked-in practice days at a range over the last 90 days, with a minimum of three separate days. It rewards showing up consistently rather than shooting one great score, so any dedicated club archer can hold it, whatever their level.
The ARC Rating is a single number built from your recent logged scores for a round, and lower is better: a perfect round scores 0, and shooting X’s can even push it below zero. It plays a similar role to an archery handicap, one number that tracks your progress on a round, but it is our own rating for your own progress, not an official handicap issued by any archery governing body. With fewer than about 8 recent scores it shows as provisional until your history fills in.
Yes. Signed-in archers can download their entire practice history as a CSV file in one tap, including date, round, bowstyle, distance, arrows shot, total score, average per arrow and notes. The export opens in Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers or any coaching spreadsheet, so your data is never locked in.
