Parker-Smith Challenge
 

Okay,

Trying to fill out the registration form for the Southern, and I am confused. I will admit, that the feeling of being confused seems to be occurring more frequently!

SO,

I don't see the qualifying rounds for the Team on the form. I am also confused, as when looking at the results from last year, there are categories for every gauge, but how can LC Smith compete in the 28 bore event, if there are no LC 28's made? I am assuming the Parker Team must shoot Parkers and the LC Team must shoot LC's?

Does the "Main Event" on Sunday play into the Cup competition?

You don't pre-register for the Parker-Smith Challenge and it is separate from the other Deep River events. That has caused some confusion in the past.

Come down to the Parker-Smith tent and sign ups will be there starting Friday morning. Friday is usually lighter and so signing up then should not be a problem.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Thanks Mills....okay so how the heck does LC field a 28 bore team?

They don't....

You got me there. That is the Fall Southern and I haven't been the last two years

Hmmm... now I’m confused too.

They probably sleeved a few 20s down to 28.

Actually one 28 gauge Smith was produced years ago and it was made for a family member of the owners if I’m not mistaken . And I think it’s still in that family .

The Fall Southern is its own event. It is a separate shoot with is own events and side events/ etc. You cannot use the information from one to sign up for the other.

The LC Smith vs Parker event/ and events are their own thing. Like Mills says sign up for those at the Parker/ Smith tent.

Unfortunately to confuse maters even more. There are 20 ga, 16 ga and now 10 ga Smith vs Parker events. These take place on Wed (10 ga) and Thursday (20 and 16). Only on the two five stand fields.
The real challenge event starts with qualifying rounds on Friday to Saturday. Then the shoot off Saturday evening with the hammergun event Sunday am.

Lots to shoot. Lots of fun.
IMO it is best to figure a plan out a head of time but don't pre register. Just register there and have fun but have a rough plan of what you want to shoot each day.

Enjoy,

John
