We should have actually given out a third to a revolver shooter who had a dud on the standards stage and didn't reload and take his 6th shot. But I failed to think of this until it the situation was over. I hate inconsistent officiating, especially by me! The cover calls were sometimes painful too. Cindy, Travis, and I agreed ahead of time to not award PE's for a couple inches out of cover, but half of your foot - yes. This sounds easy to manage, but what about 1/3 of someone's foot? Damn. We did our best to call it the same for everyone, but I'm sure there was a little slop where someone got away with something that was essentially the same as what someone else got dinged for.I was pretty disgusted with myself one afternoon when I found myself watching a shooter SHOOT, instead of watching his feet in the doorway that I was supposed to be monitoring. That guy might have been 16" out of cover but I just flat wasn't paying attention to his legs/feet. Fail.But I know for sure that if you were 100% behind cover you did not get a PE from me. So this is easy to manage if you want to avoid a PE, just use cover! Funny story: The super squad got 0 or 1 PE's for cover. I heard later that they were warned about our stage ahead of time, so they just plain used cover properly. Isn't that great? God I love not having to give out a PE for cover. Warms my heart.Koski
