27 yard targets

Struff, I got punched back to the 25 1/2 my second season and first 2 handicap events ever only!! That was at the Grand in '87. I never fired a handicap round again til '99, lol and went back to the Grand with my required # of targets and ended up with a 2 1/2 yard punch in the Preliminary Handicap. Since there is no 28 line they could only give me 1 1 /2 of the 2 1/2 gain!! God I hate handicap shooting, but the dough from that end of the field is much more rewarding....LOL

That's impressive shooting. 2 1/2 yards in one event would mean high score with over 1500 shooters.
I believe the extra yard that is not punched is used as a credit and when you get a reduction, you stay on the 27.

Hmmmm, have to think back on that but seems to me I got my reduction to 26 after 1000 targets. I have since been reduced to the 25 and thats where I have stayed as I have not been shooting for the past 3 seasons, that may change I am single again,LOL!!!!!!!!!!
