Oct 2003 - Sept 2004 Rules

NATIONAL SPORTING CLAYS ASSOCIATION

This is a simple "calculator" that will help you determinehow many NSCA punches you are entitled to.

• Punches are awarded in registered events of 50 targets or more.
• Top Scores include that score and all ties within each class.
• Punches are given ONLY for scores, not awards. In other words, you can win HOA but you will get punches depending on:
  1. What score you received & how it placed in your class (i.e., 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.).
  2. Number of shooters in your class.

Number in Class	Number of Punches Awarded
Less than 5	Zero
5-9	1 to High Score and all ties
10-14	2 to High Score and all ties
15-29	4 to High Score and all ties 2 to 2nd High Score and all ties 1 to 3rd High Score and all ties
30-44	4 to 1st and 2nd High Score and all ties 2 to 3rd High Score and all ties 1 to 4th High Score and all ties
45 or more	4 to 1st, 2nd, 3rd High Score and all ties 3 to 4th High Score and all ties 2 to 5th High Score and all ties 1 to 6th High Score and all ties
Punches for Main Event of National Championship and U.S. Open remain as outlined in current rule book.

AA to Master	16

• In all registered tournaments, all ties shall be shot off unless otherwise specified by shoot management and published in the program or posted at the registration table. Procedures for shootoffs and squads shall be posted prior to beginning of shoot.
