Nik Habicht Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I'll say leave it as is -- but add an activating mechanism to reopen the port, perhaps a pullrope, that must be held to maintain the port open. Now there's a penalty for shooting the no-shoot popper, but it's possible for the shooter to finish the stage...... The other option would be to make the same targets available from another, less convenient position or positions.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveZ Posted February 28, 2011 Author Share Posted February 28, 2011 I suspect perhaps the problem may have already been solved for us by the stage designers and maybe we overlooked it. I'm guessing to facilitate resetting the trap door...they may have installed a handle on the backside of it to grab it and raise it....that same handle could be used by the competitor to raise the trapdoor and play "peek-a-boo" while blasting the targets strong hand or whatever. So there is a way for the competitor to "fix" their screwup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorch Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 (edited) Stage is Legal and APPROVED! because You Can Open the trap Door Manually to reengage the Targets at YOUR discretion THUS not a disappearing target and you have control over the Hard cover. just like a doorway just because it shuuts does not mean the targets behind it are disapearing. this is the difference in this stage and the 2009 stage.

scorch Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 (edited) And we WILL be putting NO SHOOTS all around the Door and the Ramp to keep you from shooting thru the wood like they did in 09 Edited March 2, 2011 by scorch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
