    Ive been looking through this and it seems that they rely on absolute honesty. Is there any regulating or is it a case of stick your targets up in the garden and trust that everyone submits the results fairly?

    Its based on the honour system and is not regulated.

    This system has worked well on UBC for some time.

    I like that. I cant imagine that the sort of people that have an HW45 would be the sort to cheat and it would make it a rather hollow victory as well, I mean having a trophy on your mantel piece that only really has meaning to yourself would be rather pointless if you knew that it wasn't won honourably.

    It'd be kinda hard to turn up to one of the two meets held each year having won a trophy and not be able to hit the card

    True, if they turned up that is.
