SCORING GOES AS FOLLOWED
we are doing golf style scoring again this year, the person with the lowest amount of points takes home the win.  1st is one point, 2nd is 2 points, 3rd is 3 points so on and so on. DNF will result in one point more than the total amount of competitors. FOR EXAMPLE If there are 10 competitors and you receive a DNF your score will be an 11 for that course
TIE
In the event of a TIE the person with better placements throughout the event will take the position  
Most important this is about having fun and enjoying a hobby we all love with existing friends along with new friends. So don’t take the competition too seriously, Enjoy Yourself and GOOD LUCK
