    We have had 1 full season,so shouldn't be to hard to work the average kicker/non kicker score and set the bonus points from that.
    In fairness to Bob he drafted a set of rules for an unknown quantity and I think it's right to tweak them here and there to get the format spot on.
    I think we need to forget about Paul's scores as to count him would put the other kicker shooters at a disadvantage,his true average is about 9.1 with a £80 20 year old gun,you just have to take your hat off to that.
    Not quite sure who's bitching about kicker shooters,but then it was posted at nearly 2am

    I think the moral here is: YOU CANT PUT A GOOD MAN DOWN.

    You can just call him 'The Poison Dwarf', 'Jonesy', 'Relum Lover' 'TC1' and thats the polite ones.

    We / I Did!

    I went through every card of every 2012 round from both teams and oddly enough it worked out the the kicker bonus should be +4.

    I think people have just got used to shooting a "kicker" and the improved scores reflect this. But if at the end of the season people feel the bonus is too great then bob's already stated he's open to changing it.

    Oh and Paul W is a freak and should have to shoot Annie Oakley style to give the rest of us a chance .

    It wouldn't make any difference - Paul's one of those naturally talented shooters; Malcolm Cooper and Mick Meggison spring to mind - both Olympic standard.

    Malcolm Cooper owned Accuracy International and shot 3 position rifle; Mick runs Kelbrook Shooting School but used to shoot rapid fire pistol, standard pistol and running boar rifle to name but 3 disciplines.......
