rchr, I've never quite understood the thinking behind the MSR rules. I used to be able to drive in the dark without lights. Now I need lots of light, and glasses. Generally you'd expect the senior shooters to have years of experience. This is not necessarily so. I've only been shooting 3D for 3 years. All the shooting I do is with a pin and no lens. The biggest thing I have trouble with re: 35 yds plus is eyesight. I can't see the targets very well. I shoot HC because of this, and many of the friends I shoot with are younger. We could still shoot the same course, just a different class. Another reason I shoot HC is I like to shoot with the same sight and stabilizer I hunt with. I'd even have no problem with the current equipment rules at 35 yds. Are there any other shooters out there feeling similarly?
