[QUOTE="David E, post: 1331421, member: 1013"] Higgimw, I did not realize you also posted your PM to me to this thread. I will post my PM response to you in italics, as well: [I]There are times when there are more tapers than targets. This is good! But too often it turns into no tapers, because "everyone else" is already doing it. There have been times when I was "too slow" to tape, so I wouldn't go forward and tape. However, I didn't want to always be "too slow," so I would find the guy that had the roll of tape and ask him to peel off a strip for me. I'd be ready to go forward on the "range clear" command and would zoom towards the target(s) I selected to tape. I'd beat whoever else was heading that way. I'd tape for a few runs (or however long I could until it was my time to shoot) so everyone would know that I was, in fact, contributing.[/I] I am going to re-establish the procedures I first learned in Colorado when I began shooting. The Scorekeeper will call out 3 people to tape and/or reset targets, one to pick up the brass. If your name isn't called, no one will expect you to do anything. The shooter will have 4 times they will be expected to help restore the stage for the next competitor. It'll go like this: "Adams is the shooter, Baker, on deck (Baker does nothing) Charles, Dwight, Edward, tape/reset, Flanders, pick up brass!" Now, if you're Charles, Dwight, Edward or Flanders and you're not there, or are refusing to do the tasks, we'll need to have a talk. This works pretty well, so this is what we'll do at Heartland from now on. [/QUOTE]
