JUST MY 2 CENTS, BUT I DO BELIEVE THERE IS A LEGITIMATE NEED FOR SHOOTERS TO MOVE FORWARD IN CLASS. BECAUSE WE ALL SHOOT AND PRACTICE TO BECOME BETTER, BEING BETTER MEANS BEING ABLE TO JUDGE YARDAGE BETTER, AND FARTHER. NOW I AM SHOOTING HC THIS YEAR AS I DID LAST YEAR, I HAVE NO EXPECTATIONS OF BEING ABLE TO WIN A NATIONAL OR WORLD LEVEL THIS YEAR, BUT WILL MOVE FORWARD NEXT YEAR (OR POSSIBLY THIS YEAR, HAVENT DECIDED YET). BUT, ON THE OTHER HAND, THERE ARE A LOT OF US, ESPECIALLY THOSE OF US ON THIS FORUM, WHICH ARE UNDOUBTEDLY HOOKED AND HOPLESSLY ADDICTED. I AM SURE A LOT OF THE PEOPLE WHO SHOOT HC FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE 3D RING MIGHT NOT BE BACK AT THE NATIONAL OR WORLD SHOOTS THE FOLLOWING YEAR BECAUSE OF LACK OF TIME AND INTEREST AND SO FORTH. SO, ITS NOT EVERYONE IN HC, ALOT OF THESE SHOOTERS ARE ONLY SHOOTING FOR THIER FIRST YEAR, BEGINNERS NEED A PLACE TO BEGIN, OR THEY MAY NEVER START. MY SUGGESTION IS TO PLACE AN ADDITIONAL LIMIT OF 3 YEARS IN HC, THIS WILL ELIMINATE SOME FROM STAYING IN ONE PLACE AND RUNNING OFF NEW SHOOTERS. BUTCHB
