Target archery is the most popular form of archery, in which members shoot at stationary circular targets at varying distances. All types of bow (longbow, barebow, recurve and compound) can be used. Archery competitions may be held indoors or outdoors. Modern competitive target archery is governed by the World Archery Federation (abbreviated WA).

Standard WA targets are marked with 10 evenly spaced concentric rings, which generally have score values from 1 through 10 assigned to them. In addition, there is an inner 10 ring, sometimes called the X ring. This becomes the 10 ring at indoor compound competitions. In World Archery, targets are coloured as follows:

1 ring & 2 ring – white

3 ring & 4 ring – black

5 ring & 6 ring – blue

7 ring & 8 ring – red

9 ring, 10 ring & inner 10 ring – gold

Therefore the red colour ring surrounds the gold centre of an archery target.
