here is the bottom line, as stated above, you will be scheduled to shoot a minimum of 40 targets at the world, weather permitting. in the past the weather has not been the best, but that is the way it goes.

world qualifiers shoot 30 or 40 targets. most state championships shoot 40 targets.

dont be scared off of shooting the world championship due to weather, it was unfortunate that the shoot was shortened, but those are the breaks. if someone decides they dont want to participate, that is one shooter i dont have to beat, but i hope they show, i like the competition.

the world shoot is very exciting, and can be overwhelming to new shooters. snowshoe is a very big place, and there are lots of venders and people......go with an open mind, and enjoy. you will not regret it....

as for the weather, the last time i checked, ken watkins may be able to walk thru water, but as of yet has not mastered walking on it. his only ability to control weather is based on his ability to operate an umbrella, or stay inside. ken has a huge task making sure we are all safe, and does a very good job of it.
