The original post mentions using different classes in MBO & HC similar to how ASA does it. Here are the winning scores in the threeopen classes at the ASA Classic: Open A- 422 , Open B-426 , Open C- 422 . I'm not sure if they shot the same courses, but I can't imagine the difficulty would be that much different. My point is that the guys at the top of each class could probably all beat one another on any given day and this will never change from year to year. I believe that if you normally finish mid- pack in MBO, then you will finish mid-pack in HC, MBR, MHC, etc. The same goes if there were an MBO-A , MBO-B , and MBO-C. If the guys in the "C" classes think that every thing will be better next year when the top dogs move to "B" class, think again. Somebody will be there to take their place and shoot that seemingly unattainable 422.The only way to get to the top is good old fashioned hard work. It takes alot of time to be that good and I've come to the conclusion that with three kids I don't have the time. But I'm still good enough to kill a deer and thank the Lord it is almost that time of year. I guess I'm done rambling now.
