About
ArrowNautics is a dedicated archery scoring application built to eliminate the stress of manual scorekeeping at tournaments, leagues, 3D field events, clout shoots, and practice sessions. Designed with simplicity in mind, it walks users through just three steps: create an event using one of 120+ pre-built templates (or a custom one), add archers in shooting order, then shoot and score. The app supports all major archery formats and organizations including World Archery (WA), IFAA, NASP, NFAA, NFAS, GNAS, Archery Australia (AA), ASA, IBO, Bowhunter, Hit/Miss, and Clout. It handles up to 12 arrows per end and supports multiple distance configurations per event. Key features include a real-time event leaderboard with configurable tiebreaker rules, highly customizable visual scorecards, the ability to take in-app photos directly from the scorecard, and robust email/print functionality for both completed and blank scoresheets. Archers can also store individual sight markings within the app. ArrowNautics is ideal for tournament directors, club scorekeepers, coaches, and individual archers who want accurate, professional-grade scoring without the mental math. Whether running a world-class competition or a casual club night, ArrowNautics brings speed, accuracy, and a touch of fun to the scoring table.
