Help Wanted…

[MSmith]

Due to a change of priorities and subsequent time constrains, I find it necessary to step down from doing the monthly postal shoot as of the end of May. The May shoot will be the last one I will be able to host.

I’m confident there is someone here that will take the baton to keep the monthly shoot going. I will be happy to help anyone who wants to jump in the saddle.

Msmith,
I would be willing to step in and run it ia an online format with photos or scans submitted to the forum or via email.

I've really enjoyed participating in the last 2 and im a bit concerned with the ethics participating though while acting as target designer and judge?

What are everyones thoughts?

I’m ok with it as long as you never win.

RanchRoper, but what if I post my target on day one and no one else want to challenge my greatness? I think you got me this month though, its close but my whiffed is whiffed by a mile, even hit the wrong bull.......

I am totally ok with you doing it. Thanks for stepping up. It’s all for fun anyway and any day at the range is a good one.

Very true, as long as there are no objections to it being a post your target pictures on the forum or submit via email I will be more than happy to keep the fun going.

Since its all in good fun I dont see the need for it to be mail in every month. Just print, shoot, photograph or scan, and have fun! Any objections to doing it that way?

All good here. See what others say.

Marc, we could try to do with I have done in the past on other forums.
Each month a different shooter makes up the target/rules and posts it on the forum. Shooters then copy the target, shoot and score it themselves. Post a photo on the forum of your target and score. If for some reason the shooter can't post a photo, just take their score. Once a winner is declared, the winner then chooses the target the next month. If the same person wins every month, or does not want to come up with a contest, have each participant's name entered in a hat and draw the "winner" out for the next months contest.

11th Corps, I would be completely on board with that format as it would keep one person from getting burned out over time and we would surely get lots of interesting targets! That would make it lots of fun!

My suggestion would be to start a new thread to discuss and gather input from others about changing the format. I think that would be easier to kick around ideas and come to some consensus.

Marc, I have done alot of thinking on it. If no one has stepped up, I will step in to continue the postal format in June. It is just too much fun to let it die.

Chris

Current format is fine. Post after you shoot. Mail it. If you don’t care about the bragging rights don’t mail it. All good.

 

[Fly103]

Yep! now y'all get to see what kinda harebrained things I can come up with to shoot at.

Just remember folks, running the mail in shooting contest is a LOT of work. If you take the job, a lot of people are counting on you so give some real thought to taking on the job before you jump out of the frying pan into the fire.
