that's exactly what a "honorable" person would think as i'm sure all of you are who have responded to this touchy subjuct. up until now i have competed in the hunter classes at locals (no ibo's or big shoots), this year i'm going to shoot comp or open and when i do go to a qualifier or any other shoot where i know i'm not going to win, i'm not going to lower my standards and shoot in a lower class just to place well, that would be unsportsman like. isn't that what we are, sportsmen/women?
