Arkansas Token Democrat challenge

Blau Bear,
You apparently chose to ignore this?

I haven't even challenged Blue Balls, I've got one going with El Puma, as I'm using his rifle, and we will spot for each other to make even more fair.

How 'bout it BB....using a non vest matching rifle, with a slightly longer LOP than I'm used to, and a cant to the scope, and an unfamiliar spotter, who has never shot that range, how many points do you think a AAA/Master shooter should give to one like you?

Sorry guys, I overlooked that!

Sure, no problem here having my butt whupped in Benton! But let's hear the stakes before closing the deal! Sounds like Ducky has some specifics in mind, which somehow makes me at least a little suspicious...

BB,
I'm not one for drinking until my responsabilities for the day are done....so I usually exchange that for food.

Dinner bill is what I'm throwing on the table for the winner.

Uhuh - that could get pretty rough with this crowd - put some limits on it and you're on. I don't drink (unless you've got a nice dark beer...) and make a cheap date, but a decent steak (better than hamburger, less than Kobe) works.

BB,
this is a bet between you and I, steak dinner (or equivalent) is on, winner chooses the restraunt and has their meal paid for by looser....

All other side bets are on your own SC readers.

Now down to the handicap points...

BB a true Gentleman would spot the lady at least 5.

Match 1

Mary - 27
Bear -

Match 2

Mary - 32
Bear -

Match 3

Mary -32
Bear -

Match 4

Mary - 25
Bear -

Looks like Mary's Average score from Winnie was 29/40 I would think that's a little low, but accurate none the less....

Bob, what is yout last (4) scores in your book?

First, BB did not shoot smallbore at Winny.

Hey remember that I was using my own (known) rifle and scope with Coates as my spotter.
In AR I will be using El Puma rifle, with canted scope, longer LOP and to make my bet with El Puma fair we will be spotting for each other, so I will have different spotter. Now understanding that BB has shot this range more times than I have (total of three times) and I am with a spotter that has never seen or shot the range, I am willing to give a few points to BB but not the amount I might otherwise do.
What are BB classes? I am still AAA in standard (two legs into M) and have been master for several years in hunter.

Mary - All things considered, you don't thin 29 is a fair line for you? I thought it was low.. but with the 'other' concerns mentioned *cough - BS* I could go for the 29/40

And I'm not sure the 3 time things hold merit, Bear probably has not shot as many matches on our range as you have...

Bear... what's the line..... ???

Innocent · Post by **Innocent** » Wed Sep 10, 2008 9:02 am

Chicken,
The 29 is probably actually my average over the last few years. Have some ggod days and bad days depending on the back....but you know there is nothing like having the opportunity to kick ass, especially with someone that claims to never had his ass kicked. I thought he was in the military and he must have had a mother. You know the island saying in this part of the country is Mommy's baby, Daddy's maybe, of course that comes out of a culture that has children inside and out.

Okay, just to get my post count up!

Let us not forget the sandbag factor! (Not talking about you BB)

This should bring out an extremely heated debate similar to the GOP thread!

I say that BB spot Mary 2 1/2 targets per match to be on the gentlemanly side! Why BB, you just need to bring your A game!

Seriously, what is the highest score EVER shot by BB? What is is average for last year?

Time is getting short and inquiring minds want to get the match rules set in advance so that we can get on with the side bets!

BlauBear · Post by **BlauBear** » Thu Sep 11, 2008 6:02 am

High score this season is 28, lows are 19. In other words, if I'm having a good day and Mary's having a bad one, she'll win by 1. But I'm not asking for slack - whattaya say Mary, win or lose, straight up? Let George & Co worry about point spread. It'll make my steak taste better...

Sounds fishy to me

BB, what is your highest for the last year? Mine is a 35, if I recall correctly, that is of course with my own equipment and a good spotter, Coates.

We need to watch the side bets going, this could get interesting.
