I just wanted to thow my 2 cents in here.

Regarding the term countback: I assume the term and meaning has been taken from other sports to spilt ties. One of the oldest sports is golf where this term is used: In golf it is indeed a Count - back. ie the best score on the last hole (18th) is the winner if still tied then they look at the 17th etc until the tie is broken.
So if my theory is true then the best score on last card (E target) would be the winner, if still tied then go back to the D target etc.
The scored targets already take into account a the group scores so I see no need why you would remeasure groups, if you do then which target do you start with?

As I said its just my two cent worth, so don't jump all over me I will just watch the posts with interest.

Congrats to the 2 shooters who tied.
