In different regions of the USA there is always someone or a gun club that has a unique match.
In Kali. Humboldt county there was the can clobber classic...quart oil jugs filled with water,on their necks in a board at qtr mile. This was originally held the week before Thanksgiving,when weather was wind and rain,and terrain was difficult for wind flags.
Rules ..hunting rifles,mob rule...off the bench ( wood) and you got a spotter to coach/ score. A hit had to draw water crease no score. The best one I witnessed was a shoot off between Allan Bonomini and Bill Nellist. Lt army. of the Alamo scouts.Allan got nine and one crease, Bill got Ten.
Any club can think of a fun shoot,any range,target,but in the spirit of competition it should be something that the average member doesn't feel outclassed. There were those who would bring out a custom gun kick butt,but following year bring something else. Unfortunately an idiot was out on range when closed because of timber cruisers and got range closed for a while.
