I’ll put this into a publication form and send it back to you. Might I also suggest that emphasis be on the fun and not the skill, the trap, which has really grown, started off as a fun thing to do with a scoring as a secondary element. Now it is a league format with teams, prizes, gifts etc. The more the merrier and I think that some may be a slight hesitation at a true competition format until they do it a few times, then yo wont be able to get rid of them Thanks for all your work Michael A.

From: bas-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bas-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Wade Price Sent: Monday, March 30, 2015 11:07 AM To: bas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bas] Re: 2 Articles for the newsletter Jack, You indicate that "the match format is eight man single elimination brackets featuring “Man vs. Man shoot offs”" I would suggest using a Swiss System Tournament instead of single elimination. This is the system used at Wallum Lake and other clubs. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss-system_tournament The benefits of the Swiss system are: You don't need to limit the number of entrants.You don't need an even number of entrants.Non-elimination. Every participant gets to participate in every round. This is more enjoyable.As the match progresses, shooters are paired with shooters of their skill level based on Wins/Losses. Typically there are 5 rounds. Ties at the end can be broken with a shoot-off or timed runs. Wallum uses the latter.
