Just sayin that we all pay the same entry fee per event, and those who shoot for fun AND score, get upset and with no recourse except for a confrontation when they follow a squad that's casual (kind word) on the scoring.

Believe it or not there are known pair cheaters who are the subject of behind the scenes talk at these SxS events.

Believe me Frank, I know that.

I have never seen that rule because I have never shot the Main Event anywhere - I'm not good enough to play that game.

But family members are not the only ones who are "casual" about scoring... good friends have been known to do it too.
Possibly a better way the rules should be worded, "If you want to shoot with a good friend or family member you must also squad up with someone who you don't know or who is a stranger to you."...?
