2024 BigWhoop 8ga competition

Post by DarylC »

Back by popular demand for you 8ga. junkies.

Bring your 8ga artillery to the BoWhoop field and have at it.
Shooting will be Thurs, Fri and Sat, June 6th, 7th and 8th during the regular shooting hours of the BoWhoop.

Targets will be different than the other Whoop events in that due to the difficulty of getting those cannons moving they will be 10 targets thrown as a report pair at a longer range than the BoWhoop.
Price will be the same: $20 with $6 purse to be split 50/30/20.

Rules and conditions subject to change just because I might need to.

Daryl set up a very difficult test for the BigWhoop 8ga event and it was reflected in the scores.
We had a six way tie for first place with the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place determined by long run from the front.
The high score was 2 for 10 shot by Daniel Bawell, Caleb Bawell, Craig Larter, Mike Smith, Craig Thompson and Mark Kircher.
Mike Smith 1st, Mark Kircher 2nd, Caleb Bawell 3rd.

Thanks to all who played the game. It's great fun watching you fellows shoot guns that should be lashed to a punt. :roll: I'm always open for suggestions to improve this event. The pairs were changed to report from simo which were thrown last year.

FYI- A gentleman who I never met wanted to shoot the BigWhoop with his 12ga and scored a 3. I'm glad he didn't play the money or else I would have had to make a decision if it was legit.
