There were at most 126 other competitors in this event, as 129 archers competed in the two "à la perche" events. However, whether all of those archers entered both events or not (and if not, how many actually did contest each) is unknown. The event was contested on 15 and 16 July 1900.[1] The Netherlands likely had archers in the event; 6 Dutch archers competed in the 1900 Olympic archery events though which events they entered specifically is unknown.[2]
This was the only appearance of the men's Sur La Perche À La Pyramide.[2]
Little is known about the format of the competition, other than that the targets were on poles at 28 metres, and that it may be related to Popinjay archery, where the archer must hit a small bird shaped target from an elevated pole.[2]
