Perhaps We should consider a format of just more shooters on each team.
Perhaps 10 or even 15 on each. I watched the entire event and it took less than 45 minutes. I agree with the competitive shooters that it should be best not random. Having 10 or 15 shooters might solve the problem of more inclusion and the problem of the best against best that day.

Maybe even have 5 big bores for each team and 5 small bores for each team with total combined for winner.

One difficulty Fox ran into was fielding a team under the top 5 score method. After a few years most average shots realized making the team by score was futile, it's nearly always the same guys. So many average shots never shot for score since shooting not for score is cheaper and the chances of qualifying were nil. The pool of Fox shooters is much smaller the Parker, the paid membership is one third.
One change I liked was holding the shoot off on Friday since many leave Friday to be home for the weekend. |

Sounds like a solution might be to keep the Parker Fox challenge competitive and create some more events that would be fun and anyone can participate in. The goal should be to increase attendance and keep them coming back.

Typical format it seems at these things is ties are decided by long run . At the present format I’d be awful disgusted if I drove the five plus hours it takes to get to Hausemann’s and shot a mid 40’s score that tied with two others for the #1 and #2 spots and then find I lost out because of the long run deal . Granted that could happen if it were the top five or top ten .

Craig you should create an event, decide the rules, schedule a time and place and put out the invites. It would be easy to do at either Mike’s place or Ernie’s. Who knows, you might come up with something really popular. That’s what William Harden Foster did.
