For those taking a bow it means gold (5-3)

I believe the answer is:

bulls-eye

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'gold' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.

(Other definitions for bulls-eye that I've seen before include "Lantern - sweet - target centre" , "Dead centre - Bill Sikes's dog - sweet" , "Accurate shot" , "Centre of the target (4'1, 3)" , "The centre of a shooting target" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
