Knockover targets stripped of paint, contact driver for details...
Oh i'm a world contender all right just damned if i know in what (but my mum says i'm cool).
I should shoot with a more serious (& with more concentration) attitude but i don't like myself when i'm serious as i tend to get more 'aggressive'. Every time i go to a shoot, i plan on being more serious but i end up enjoying myself and i end up more relaxed.

I think we should draw a line under this subject and leave it to the team captains to sort out. we are playing by the same rules as last year. Craig could not give a monkeys if he came 1st or last he is there for the enjoyment and the laughs that we have, he considers himself part of the Buxted team. The way it is going you seem to want to take that away from him. If Scott was still a junior he would fight his corner and want to beat you kids ( sorry adults ) every week. You need the four points for the juniors especially as most are four foot nothing and just starting, and with that extra encouragement they improve week on week. I hope this matter can be resolved as soon as possible, so we can all start to enjoy it again. It better to have laughed and lost , than to win and be miserable. My wife has read all the posts and cannot believe her baby has caused such a ruckus. BUT be prepared there is one more she is 11 years and has serious attitude her name is Chelsie JUNIOR you have been warned. Now lets have a good Easter the ones going to the worlds and the ones going to Horsham

Now this is the thing, i believe i got confused by something Andy had said in a previous thread & though the juniors were up for winning the individual with the extra points, it seems from your post Gary this is not the case (which is what i thought) ... I have no problem with the scoring system as it stands now that is sorted.. Hope this puts this one to bed now.

There is obvious confussion it would appear.
Certain items contained with in this thread are incorrect.
I am in no position to comment further and will leave it at that.
When the matter has been discussed by the 5 HOCs an announcement will be made.

Going back over ancient ground, it would appear that I too am confused and quite probably mistaken in my own perceptions.
My remarks were a knee-jerk reaction to what I saw as an assault on a smashing kid, who'd done nothing to provoke it, other than turn in the performance of a lifetime.
Perhaps I too should consult with my own HOC, before running off at the mouth, but hind-sight is a wonderful thing.
As for things being sorted and put to bed .... I doubt it somehow.
Speculation and conjecture are rarely constructive and it's the official line that counts. We can only wait for the results of the current deliberation and the subsequent announcement.
I have every confidence that the HOC's can surmount this annoying little bump as they have with others before.
As I've already said, after last years spat I wasn't keen to become embroiled in another and find the thought of it distasteful ....... however, best laid plans and all that.
I hope things are resolved to everyones satisfaction, but I stand by Craig's achievement and his right to a gold award by his own merit and maintain that nothing should detract from that.
Perhaps I was a tad harsh? .. we've knocked heads before and I know you can take it as well as dish it out.
To the back of the shelf for me.
Dave ..... shut it!
Whose idea was this 'kin room anyway?
I assumed, maybe wrongly, that the reason for the 4 points added to the junior score was to enable them to feel a team member by actively having the chance to be included in the team score.
If you entered as junior you are up for the junior title, if you entered as open, then you are up for the open.
But then again I can't find the SIHFT rules anywhere....
edit > I'd better add that I don't really care, I just enjoy getting out on a Sunday for the sheer enjoyment of shooting different challenging courses at different venues.

There are 10 types of people, those that understand binary, and those that don't.
I never wanted it to kick off either, nor did i want Craigs cracking performance to be made to look anything than it was...awesome.
I just thought one thing, then a post made me wonder, i went about it the wrong way i suppose, i bit & held on like a pitbull instead of consulting with Derek, if i had then i would no longer be confused as he thought the same as i in the 1st pace, juniors are juniors & individual is the adult side of it but the junior scores can add to the team.. Maybe this is or isn't the case but the confusion needs to be sorted before Swallows.
Hope you can see where i was coming from now & where the confusion lies....
Oh & Gary, it's water under the Buxted bridge to me mate
