RE: Score Keeping?
21st Century,
There have been some suggestions here and I think that everyone is honest when they are competing at these shoots. In a group there has to be trust and the group must have a majority agreement or it is possible to call a referee. When a mistake is made on the course it should be resolved by the persons shooting to everyone satisfaction for they are the only ones that have a honest view as a witness. On the course it is easy to make an honest mistake. The group has to depend on the scorekeepers as they can make or brake another persons score. The scorekeepers record the score but the group must agree on any changes that need to be made to a person's score card. All score cards should be made to agree at the end of each ten. At the Indoor World everyone shoots 40 targets non stop and score keepers have to pay attention at every target. We Call the person's name and the target numberat eachtarget in an effort to keep the concentration on the score card. At the indoor it is possible if there is a question that needs further review it is possible for the group to go look at the target and try to recall the scores.
If a person istrying to cheat it willusually be noticed by someone in the group andthey will question the procedure that is in question.
Have fun shooting this game and if a person is cheating or thought to be cheating it is our responsibility to point out what they seem to be doing that is not according to rules. Then we must eliminate any doubts to be fair to everyone.
Good Luck
