Why does my score show an 'Archer' classification when it should be 'Bowman'?
The answer given may not be applicable in all areas of the site or may refer to features available only to some users.
This happens when your score is marked as "Practice" in Golden Records. According to Archery GB rules, practice scores cannot qualify for Bowman classifications, even if the score value would normally warrant it.
To fix this, change the score status from "Practice" to either "Club Event" (for organized club shoots under competition conditions) or a formal competition status.
