just kicking around an idea, and will check with the admin of the hide if it's ok with them to continue if any of the below gains steam.
If anyone is interested in putting up a prize or two or gift certificate to your business, or something to that effect, shoot me a PM perhaps we can get these things sponsored in 2013 & a blurb or two of your business / products.
i was also thinking that perhaps having a money match, whether monthly, quarterly or even just once a year may be interesting.
nothing major, same targets and rules we now use either in the long range stuff or maybe the 50yd TRC, or we can make up a special one. perhaps $5.00 (or more depending on intrest) entry fee.
of there would be alot of trusting of one's word that the targets are shot at the proper distance, and on the day of the match.
just a few thoughts:
1. someone would have to be the "treasurer" (entry fees through paypal perhaps).
2. pick a date for the match, distance, etc. - no matter where you are at or the weather conditions, you have to shoot it that day.
3. maybe even a special dated target can be put up to make sure its the only one to be shot on that day, and released at midnight EST. scores & a mandatory picture to be posted by 11:59 pm EST the day of the match. (this should lock in a 1 day only target to keep everything on the up and up).
4. 3 "regulars" volunteer to determine any questionable / close hits on the target or score challenges. majority rules on the determination.
5. once the scores are compiled, the winner gets the pot. maybe even a 1,2,3 place winner. 1st place gets 1/2 the pot, 2nd place gets 30% of what's left, 3rd gets the remainder. to keep it simple, only 2 divisions - prone or bench, all shot outdoors.
6. in the event of a point tie, X count determines winner, if X count is a tie, a 10 round tie breaker on a fresh target.
any thoughts?
