    Why would the ATA need to add points to the US Open? Or should the question be, should the ATA add points to the US Open?

    Isn't this the ATA's version of Diversity Equity and Inclusion?

    Why can't the ATA' sponsored shoot score well with shooters without the added points? Why do the shooters that attend need extra points to be an All American?

    Are the shooters that attend the shoot less talented? Or does the ATA feel it needs to punish the more talented shooters at competing venues?

    Does this accomplish woke goals set by the ATA?

    I report. You decide.

    Why shoot for points? How do you spend those points? In my world the shooter w the most money gets the most points.

    What would Neil do? Anyone remember Neil Winston? Neil was a bit different than much of society. But he was a big part of the move to Sparta. I doubt Neil would have agreed to add points to a shoot because of location.

    Shoots of the same size should have the same points.
