It is real &#8216;Robin Hood&#8217; style archery where we shoot longer distances by aiming at the sky. In clout, a flag is placed in the ground a certain distance from the shooting line. Different flags may be placed for different genders, age groups and bow types. The scoring zone consists of five concentric circles on the ground around the flag. These may be actual markings on the ground or may be measured after an end is shot, using a marked rope or tape attached to the base of the flag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Arrows are shot towards the flag. The arrows landing in the scoring zone score points depending on which ring they land in, with the rings nearest the flag scoring higher than those further from the flag. Line cutters score upwards, though deciding where the line is can be fun, especially if the grass is on the long side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AGB rounds use imperial measurements. WA rounds use metric measurements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"agb-clout-rounds\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"AGB_Clout_Rounds\"><\/span>AGB Clout Rounds<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>AGB rounds can be shot one-way or two-way. GDB currently only offers one way clouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One end of six sighters is permitted each way, per round (double round includes sighters, each way)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A round consists of three dozen arrows, shot in either 3s or 6s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The flag is square.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"scoring-zones\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Scoring_zones\"><\/span>Scoring zones<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Colour<\/th><th>Score<\/th><th>Distance (radius) from flag<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Yellow (Gold)<\/td><td>5<\/td><td>18 inches<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Red<\/td><td>4<\/td><td>3 feet<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Blue<\/td><td>3<\/td><td>6 feet<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Black<\/td><td>2<\/td><td>9 feet<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>White<\/td><td>1<\/td><td>12 feet<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"shooting-distances\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Shooting_distances\"><\/span>Shooting distances<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Gents<\/th><th>Ladies<\/th><th>Distance<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Adult &amp;
