If UT entries exceed 36 shooters up to the maximum of 48 entries, all three matches will be run by FITASC In-line method. Online entries will be conducted by shooters selecting their preferred 'group' of shooter number, where the in-line order for the UT will be groups 1,3, 5, 7, 2, 4, 6, 8. The approximate order for Compak/Trap1 will be groups 2, 4, 6, 8, 1, 3, 5, 7, with the finalised start list to be publicised within the week or event start. See more information on the in-line method for all disciplines on our introduction page here.
​
For any shooters wanting to shoot entire 400 target weekend (all three matches) Management of adequate time slots shall be the responsibility of shooters. The in-line/squad list for UT is essential for timing, and 50 targets of Trap1 shall be undertaken by shooters at a time slot that suits. This may mean a block of 50 at end of Saturday if necessary.

EVENT INFORMATION

OFF THE GUN - Gold/Silver/Bronze to top three outright scores. Ties shoot off to discipline rules.
HANDICAP - by targets in. Awarding 1st to 10th places. Targets in are based on recorded Universal, Compak and DTL percentages for the respective UT, Compak and Trap1 events. Ties shoot off. Targets in are calculated over full match, and any targets above possible score are carried over into shoot offs. Once any carried over targets are exhausted, shoot offs are first miss & out.
Shooters without a rule off in the relevant discipline are welcome and encouraged to enter where a starting Handicap shall be determined off known ability in other disciplines.
​
CATEGORIES UNIVERSAL TRENCH
OFF THE GUN - Winners in all FITASC individual categories in UT acknowledged and awarded with Kilwell vouchers.
NO HIGH GUN
Now that we are introducing a third FITASC discipline to our weekends, with 400 targets in total being thrown, we are redistributing our prize pool over the three disciplines. In fact we're increasing the prize pool to over $6,200 in value spread over UT, Compak and Trap1. We're doing this to provide shooters options on what they enter, and we think shooters will get more back from our events by upping the prize value spread over the three disciplines.

$5,070 in Kilwell Vouchers presented to winners and place getters in all events; UT, Compak and Trap1 matches.
