The IPSC Ontario site does had an option to combine any selected divisions. So, I jut got results uploaded there...
Not so good shooting. I had 10 misses on the match, 5 of which were on targets under 5 meters. I did, however, have a LOT of fun and enjoyed my days on the range with the rest of the Canadian Open team and my days off range with the contingent from Manitoba.
BTW, only one stage were won with a non-Open gun in combined results. Dave Sevigny, managed to score Stage 8 - Hold on Tight with a Standard gun:
1 Sevigny, Dave 35 5.25 6.6667 35.0000 100.0000 STANDARD
2 Latorre, Ariel Rodrigo 33 5.00 6.6000 34.6498 98.9995 OPEN

Eh? He was shooting for less points and with less rounds in magazine... and somehow still beat Nils.
PS: stand by for combined WS and US IPSC Nationals Results. They are coming.
Why would he should an uncompensated major gun to find out when he can shoot a minor, DA/SA gun and still beat the guy running the major gun? I asked about running his scores against the open shooters with his pf changed to major, because I, like many others, believe he likely would have shot a very similar, or perhaps even better score with his Open gun, so converting his score that way would be illuminating. Obviously this is all meaningless as he shot and won PD, as expected.
Comparing the two matches really doesn't make any sense. Most of the top US shooters did not shoot the US IPSC nationals and any one who shot both has the advantage of having shot the match twice, in effect having a practice run at it.
The only worthwhile comparison I see is how Eric did with his Open gun vs his production gun, but then again he did it after having a practice go at it with the production gun.

I'm really notva fan of comparing divisions for score in the first place. It can be a fun thing to do sometimes but also has lead to the easy stage designs we see now a days.
When I started there were no divisions and dots had not caught on. Most matches had difficult shots, particulary level III matches (there were no level IV or V at the time, the worlds was a level III) it was common to see 18m B zones and 50m targets and poppers. When Dots came in those kind of targets were deemed "dot friendly" and unfair. Once Standard division was created this should have been alleviated but it wasn't. Anything seen as a hard shot was " Open friendly" even when scored seperately. Gradually (well it seemed rapidly at the time) our stages got easier and easier until it was rare that you saw targets past 10m.
from most of the reports I heard, this WS was a hoser match with mostly close targets, so the major/minor points spread is not going to be great. The top three Classic shooters all shooting minor kind of reinforces this. Push the targets back another 10m and I think you see a bigger differnce between Standard and Standard Minor (Sorry Production division
)

)You've heard, but you haven't shot it. So, your expert opinion on this match worth nothing.

Oh, I disagree with that. It wasn't the "sniper" matches often offered in Europe, but there was plenty of opportunities to miss or tag a no shoot.
The Open Winner himself had misses. I shot with Angus. He was happy it wasn't the sniper stages, he though it was a good balance.
If anything, many of the target arrays tended to suck you in to thinking they were easier than they were. There were a lot of miscalculations in that respect and lots of personal disasters. Overall, I thought it was a nice mix of technical shooting and pure speed.
Anyone who thinks pass-over swingers can be hosed needs a reality check. There were a lot of swingers, none of them apex.
ETA: I'm not a huge fan of "sniper" matches. The idea of just grinding out points and never being able to kick in the after-burners is boring to me. Mix it up!
