This was my first time shooting the national triple crown series. I enjoyed the experience. I do have some questions and suggestions that I hope you will take the time to consider.

1. The bino rule needs to be done away with. We are shooting at small rings that are not visible by the naked eye. We are also shooting under some poor lighting conditions. For someone with poor vision or very bad astigmatism it is a big disadvantage not to be able to see what they are aiming at. These are afterall targets not real animals. We are shooting for score and when we have no idea where to hold on an animal it makes for a long day.

2. Shooting times should be assigned. A casual start may work with smaller shoots but with this many people if there were shotgun starts on 4 ranges with 2 sessions per day for lets say the MBO class. things would run much smoother. 8 hours to shoot 30 targets is excessive to say the least.

3. At what point does the IBO stop a shoot due to weather?

4. Arrow speed vs draw weight and arrow weight. It should be an arrow speed rule. maybe cap it at 290 I dunno but not everyone can get 320 to 330 out of their bows and there is a distinct advantage with more speed if you can control it. A speed limit would balance the field and give the advantage to the archer who works on all aspects of their game rather than eeking out every ounce of speed.

These are merely suggestions not criticisms. I hope you take the time to kick them around an maybe make some adjustments. Thanks
