RULES

Teams and Scoring

  • Each team is allowed up to 4 shooters. No shooter can shoot for two separate teams in a single session. Once the first shot has been fired, all teams are to proceed with the team on the official scorecard. 

  • Each player will shoot 100 shots, combining for a total team score of 400. There will be a prize in each session for the top individual shooter and top team. Players are not to shoot in place of their teammates. 

  • If there are less than 4 shooters on a team, the average of the other shooters on that team will be taken and added to the overall score. (Ex. - If P1 shoots 80, P2 shoots 85, and P3 shoots 70, the missing P4’s score will be 78, for a total team score of 313.)

  • The top individual shooter prize cannot be awarded to the same person in each session. If a shooter signs up for both morning and afternoon sessions and outshoots the other players in both sessions the award for the top individual shooter will go to the next highest scoring shooter in the afternoon session.

Course Rules

  • No alcoholic beverages are allowed on any shooting course or field and are not to be consumed until after you have finished shooting. Anyone suspected of drinking will not be allowed to shoot while they are deemed under the influence. 

  • Protective shooting glasses and ear protection must be worn at all times.

  • The largest shot size permitted is #7 ½ 

  • While waiting for your turn to shoot, you must remain safely behind the shooter, clear of their field of vision. 

  • The only time a shotgun will have a breach of action is when the shooter is on station preparing to shoot. At all other times, the gun will be unloaded and placed in a rack or muzzle safe position.

  • Practice swings from behind the station are not allowed. 

  • At no time will a shooter load more than two shells. 

  • Before leaving the station, shooters will ensure the shotgun is unloaded and actions are safe. 

  • Never handle someone else’s shotgun without permission. 

  • It is strictly forbidden to shoot any live bird or another animal while not in a controlled hunting station. 

  • All instructions and directions to the course participants from Old South Clays owners, operators, or employees are final and not subject to debate. 

Failure to adhere to these rules will result in disqualification.
