    I was just having a bit of a snark about "gamesmanship".

    Every so often, you run into the odd character on club "committees" who likes to wax obnoxious about the "rules", whils flexing them as much as they can for their own benefit.

    It certainly occurs in lots of other fields and is sometimes called "psyching out" your competition. Fair enough at the "big kid's" level, but it tends to put off newcomers who witness it unexplained.

    I have shot rifle and pistol at international "Shooting Games" and "Master's Games" (somebody has to take home the wooden spoon), as well as international REAL military matches, (throw in machine-gun matches) and the "games" are definitely not all conducted on the mound!

    However, if you are trying to encourage a steady stream of new shooters, it is not productive to play these silly games on the "prospects".

    Apart from all that, thanks for the advice, T-Bone!!
