NZ SOY PROGRAM FOR 2015|Tournament Information 2015|Forum|Bow Hunters of Alabama

1. Participant MUST be a paid BHA member. (Note: In years past, we have been very lax on shooters in regard to when their dues were paid. This year, however, we will allow a 1 month “grace period”. That said, if shooter’s dues have not been paid in by March 1, 2015, that shooter will NOT be eligible for SOY points. NO EXCEPTIONS. (Folks, this is a “dead horse” that, quite frankly, there’s no excuse for anymore, not to mention, we’re sick & tired of addressing! So, please, don’t bring it to me if you’re late getting your dues paid!)

2. The points will be cumulative from all NZ shoots from which shooter’s have participated. Though it is encouraged for shooters to participate in “out of zone” shoots when possible, those points will not be added to said shooter’s cumulative score, with the exceptions of the SZ & CZ Championship Series shoots, which WILL accumulate. Note: There are no NZ shoots (to my knowledge) scheduled on SZ’s & CZ’s Championship Series shoot dates, which should encourage NZ’ers to “make the trips”!

3. It is recommended that any shooter vying for SOY to remain in the same class, i.e., “Open A”, for the entire season. Should a shooter switch classes during the course of the tournament season, those two scores will not be added together. Basically, if one shooter shoots in multiple classes, that shooter will have multiple cumulative scores, which, naturally, would be detrimental to one specific class’s cumulative score. Put simply, if a shooter wants to switch classes, we won’t stop you.

4. THERE SHALL BE NO DROP SCORES.

5. SOY scores will accumulate until, but will not include, the BHA State Championship, where & when awards will be given.

6. SOY shooters will abide by current BHA rules as they apply to each specific class.

7. Accumulative scores will be taken from the scoring results from each NZ Chapter shoot, as well as the Zone Championship Series shoots. Therefore, the accuracy of said scores will depend solely on the chapter’s ability to post those scores accurately.
