Where should spectators always be during archery practice?

Spectators should always be positioned behind the waiting line during archery practice for several important safety reasons. This line serves as a designated area that keeps onlookers at a safe distance from the archers and their equipment while shooting is in progress. By ensuring that spectators are behind the waiting line, it minimizes the risk of injury from stray arrows and protects those who are not actively involved in shooting from the potential hazards of the range.

In addition to safety, maintaining this boundary helps to maintain focus for the archers, preventing distractions that could arise from having spectators too close to the shooting line. This guideline is an essential part of archery range etiquette and supports a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone involved.
