Well I don't know what others may be considering but I consider my proposal could be improved by giving LG placegetters the same bonus points as HG - i.e. 3, 2, 1. This would help to keep the contest more open as the year progresses. Inthe past it has all too often become a two-horse race by mid-year. If things were ideal then we should see a situation where the matter is not settled until the last qualifier and with 3 or more shooters still in contention. The more nearly a scoring system can approach creating this situation the better. Individual wins and places at qualifying matches are their own reward so keeping the bonus points modest seems to me to be reasonable. Points earned in HG should not in any way be compared to LG as different criteria is used based on the historical 2 to 1 ratio of entries in LG vs HG. Can we get some feed-back on this proposal?? Unless of course some has another idea altogether.
