Hello David,
If you're talking about the Southern SXS Fall Classic, I've been to three of them, and Rick has always set up a second separate course for the sub-gage events. Rick is an awesome target setter, and does a super job setting challenging, but fun, sub-gage targets, ditto for the large gauge targets. This wouldn't be possible if both were shot on the same course, and would make for some pretty congested pathways if the sub-gage and large gauge stations were sprinkled amongst each other along the trail. That's been his program for the Prelim and sponsored events on Friday and Saturday. The Main event shot on Sunday has, at least in the years I've attended, always been shot on an entirely different and larger course, and obviously one could use any gauge they preferred. It is probably the best weekend Vintage shotgun event that I've ever attended as it is currently set up from a shooters standpoint, and I've never heard even a single complaint from any shooter.
Just my observations, with a little opinion thrown in for no extra charge!
John
