Thanks Bill for the confirmation. Just one suggestion for anyone doing Challenge qualifications. When you're up to bat, shooting simos, be sure to tell the scorer if you're going to shoot that pair opposite of the earlier shooters. It's my experience that 5-stand scorers are attuned to looking at, let's say, the left bird first.... and if you shoot that pair right-left, he may think you missed the left bird on the first barrel, and hit it with the second. Or worse yet, that you missed the left bird, and then when he looks for the right one he doesn't see anything - so he marks you down for two O's instead of two X's. This isn't a problem with the actual Challenge shooting because each team has a person there to help the scorer confirm dead/loss whichever way you shoot the simo. Nuff said. Frank
