check your scores, in time

I think this is realy something for beginners, what i am.

Only this year started shooting level III matches through europe.

Shot the Czech Euro Open last weekend.

The flooding of central europe including Czech Republic made it a strange match. A lot of competitors couldn't make it or had to turn around halfway. Stages were very muddy and therefore sometimes hard, even to make a walk through. Shooting performance on my site wasn't great and ended up in the 65% region of standard class.

The morning after the match at breakfast we talked about the match and again took the verification list and stage results.

Why didn't i see this before!

On a 24 rounds stage i made one miss, i know i did and remembered. Only the day after i saw that on the verification list there were 2 misses and a penalty noted for that stage.

After checking it seemed my score

16A, 3C,2 D, 1 miss (+2 steel) 16.02 sec

was altered in 16 A, 3D,2 miss, 1 penalty!

At the match result  i got some 34 matchpoints less this way.

To late to alter this mistake in the matchresult.

Because of my poor results i wasn't concentrated or willing to pay attention enough to see the faults in the verificationlists.

Another lesson learned, always check the scores.

We all have had that happen to us and now we check it B4 we sign the score sheet.
