HI
I've been unable to find the Bullseye-L post complaining about this "problem" but I'll attempt to explain what I hope a female 66 year old shooting a revolver and a shotgun would encounter.
On the NRA form you fill out your name, membership number, classification (High Master 97% down to Marksman 85% or lower), male or female, active military, and age. On the Bullseye-L forum, there was a complaint that a shooter who put down one of the sub-classes (Senior) won the whole match, but since they had put down Senior, they only won the Senior trophy, not the overall. I'd like to see the top shooter get the top prize. In short, if a female 66 year old shooter with a revolver and a shotgun hit more targets in less time than anybody else shooting a revolver and a shotgun, she gets the top prize PERIOD. I'd argue that if there's another 66 year old (or older) that shoots just under her score would get the Senior Trophy, and the female who shoots the next best score to hers would get the Woman's trophy. I'm a 4H shooting sports coach, so the whole share the wealth in trophies works well.
I hope this makes sense, AND I just read the complaint, I've never seen an example of this in action. I also can't find the post again.
Later
