Veteran age

[Les53]

To shoot for England [all dates are age at Jan 1st of that year but medals for English and British champs are date of shoot]. CPSA scores show vets erroneously as 60 always.

ABT = 60

OT = 55

To shoot for GB at UT = 55, Supervets = 65 BUT there is a proposal to move Vets to 60 in the pipeline as they're all living too long. Imminent Vets about to qualify are up in arms over this.

Meanwhile Helice are proposing to move Vets down from 65 causing some gnashing of teeth.

Why the bloody hell can't they just standardise the whole thing I wonder?

I thought when I became a vet (nothing to do with animals) I would be able to lift a bit more cash from the prize table--------------------------then you look who is in the vets, it is one of the most competitive classes there is. Ah well back to the drawing board.

That i can believe, some really great shooters in the older age bracket and isnt that brilliant that we can all be inspired to continue to try and improve knowing that you are never to old and can compete at a high level in this fantastic sport.
