fastfletch, i rest my case.....400 participants, 20% winners, thats 80 people, that leaves 320 loosers, but, if you diversify enough, everyone can be a winner. but the math is scewed just a little.....20%......even with less people in the classes, still, 20% will be winners.

in all seriousness, if there were to be a change, have a national triple crown trophy class. have them shoot from the same stake as the money shooters, pay a reduced rate for the shoot, and only give trophies to the top 5 finishers. does that sound better than the over 50 shooting less than 60 lbs shooting with a scope without a clarifier with a stabilizer below 24 inch left eye dominant ford driving only stays at the ramada in yuppie class?
