JUNE POSTAL MATCH TARGETs
« on: June 02, 2023, 04:09:22 PM »
 
JUNE POSTAL MATCH TARGETS



June’s Rondy target is the “Perils of Pauline”  attached below and the standard target

SCORING:  any Train  10 points   any section of track 5 points.
Hitting Pauline WAS -10 points but unfortunately she fell of the track.

As some of you are aware, I go up to my Cabin in the Adirondack mountains of NY. I brought my ancient laptop to keep up with my postal match director

Only one change:
PLEASE SEND COMPLETED TARGETS TO
“ nessmuk@cox.net”

I can’t access score@TMA.org  here, Sorry.

HELP!!! How would you guys score this mess? Nessmuk, I need some guidance on this one, please! I hung the target vertically and the attached pic explains what I tried to do and what the poor results were. This wasn't just Pauline's peril, it about did me in, too! [ Invalid Attachment ]

Well, according to the directions, any train is 10 points and any section of track is 5 points.
You scored 15 points.

I must have been having a psychotic episode when I drew this one.

OK, thanks for the answer. I'll go with the 15, b/c the rules cover it, but I feel like the golfer who makes a hole in one after it ricochets off a tree, a cart, and a ball washer. I'm not going to do any bragging.  :Doh!
