50s

What is a 50's option?

A 50s option takes the top scores for two traps (1 for doubles) and adds the score together. Whoever hit the top score out of the 50 targets wins the place. Typically 50s are only ran on Singles and Handicap events. It can be ran on doubles, where each trap counts as a 50. 

There are two standard ways that 50s are ran. 

  • Font + Back (2 fifties)
    • Two fifties is the most common configuration. Sometimes denoted as $5 on each 50 .... $10. This configuration adds Trap 1 + Trap 2 and Trap 3 + 4 to create the calculated scores.
  • Front + Middle + Back (3 fifties)
    • Three fifties is another way that 50s is configured. Sometimes denoted as $5 on each 50 .... $15. This configuration adds Trap 1 + Trap 2, Trap 2 + Trap 3, and Trap 3 + 4 to create the calculated scores.

In Singles events, 50s are typically paid out by class. Where all AAA shooters are combined into one payout group, and only the monies from the AAA shooters are paid out to the AAA shooters. Same goes for all subsequent classes. 

In Handicap events, 50s are typically paid out with all shooters being a part of one class (without class separation). Where all the monies collected are paid out to the shooters who won money.
