MAIN EVENT | All teams consist of four shooters. Each team shoots at twelve stations, with 72 total targets per shooter. Teams will have the option to purchase mulligans and shoot at the 13th station on each course. This event is for those 21+ years old. Greater Houston Sports Club does not provide gun rentals, so please bring your own. Entry fees cover ammo, golf carts, breakfast, and lunch.

LEWIS CLASS SCORING Champions will be determined by Lewis Class Scoring, which is a curved scoring system used to spread awards among a group of shooters, allowing more shooters the opportunity to win an award. After the shoot is complete, Greater Houston Sports Club will rank each team's scores from highest to lowest and divide them equally into four classes. The top team out of each of those classes will be that class's champion. The team with the highest overall score will receive the High Overall Team Award. 

 

RAIN POLICY The event will proceed in the event of rain or other inclement weather. Greater Houston Sports Club will suspend shooting if lightning is sighted and continue the event if possible. If the event is totally rained out, we will attempt to reschedule to another date. We will only attempt to reschedule once.
