Parker Wins Challenge

[Quigley97]

Every year for the last 6 years, minus the pandemic year, I always shoot the Parker/ Smith qualifier two or three times each year. I always miss the cut by 2 or 3 targets, once it was by 1 target. Would I like to shoot the challenge, absolutely, would I like to be able to shoot it as being a drawn ticket, maybe. I will say a great thank you to Daryl, Craig, and Steve for stepping up to the plate and running the event. I am sure that everyone enjoyed themselves and that is one major point of the whole "shooting match" pardon the pun.

Shane could show up with a Barker and still shoot like that. Young eyes, young reflexes.

[Mike of the Mountain]

He could shoot for Team Crescent!! We should hook him up.

Shooting the Crescent could signal a resurgence of the Stoat.

Mike,

I was going to say, You should see him with an Ithaca in his hands, but I suppose you seen that already

Great discussion on the new format both pro and con. I'll add this:

If you look at it conceptually, when you meld three "average" shooters with two "competition" shooters, chances are the average Joes will step-up their game several notches, and in theory, you should have one hell of a competitive match. And that's exactly what transpired. Not to mention, the majority of spectacular dead pairs and lengthy second barrel kills were performed by you guessed it, the Joes. All and all, I thought it was one of the most exciting FPC contests we've had in years.

I always thought was a " fun shoot" If people want to shoot competition that could be done elsewhere.
