Award Scheme

The award system this series will be using makes for a more relaxed and less competitive side to HFT (Hunter Field Target). It will encourage shooters to work toward improving their own personal performance as well as provide a stimulating event for the novice and experienced alike. There are four merit badge levels based on an individuals score percentage in relation to the highest score of the day.

Bronze Badge
  • A Bronze badge will be awarded to shooters within 18 points of the top score in the Open class and with 23 points in the other classes (Junior, Springer and 22).
  • Silver Badge
  • Silver will be awarded to shooters within 9 points of the top score in the Open class, and within 15 points for the other classes.
  • Gold Badge
  • Gold will be awarded for shooters within 4 points of the top score in the Open class and within 9 points for the other classes.
  • Platinum
  • A Platinum badge will go out to any shooter who achieves the Gold standard in any 4 of the 6 events in a single season.
  • Open Class

    Extra dispensation is given to those shooting in .22, recoiling class (spring powered rifles) and junior classes. This is to give everyone a fair chance of achieving an award.

    From the above grid, if the highest score of the day (in any class) is 57 out of 60, Gold awards will require a score of 48 or more, Silver will require a score of 42 or more and bronze will require a score of 36 or more.

    When can I collect my Badge?

    Because the badges are awarded based on the top score for the day you will have to wait until the final scores from Round 2 are in and collated by the Stats office. This would not be until after 2-30pm at most competitions. Because of this you will have the choice to either buy a badge (assuming your score qualifies for one) at the Stats office after all stats are calculated or you will be able to buy the badge from the stats office at the next competition in the series.

    How much will the Badge cost?

    Badges cost £3 each. The first badge is free for junior competitors but any further badges they win will be charged at the normal rate.

    Are there any restrictions on buying a badge?

    Yes – each competitor will only be able to buy one badge at each event. You can buy a badge of a lesser merit to replace the one you actually achieved if you would like to collect the full set. So for example - if you had earned a Gold badge you could ask for a Silver or Bronze badge instead. Shooters who win a 4th Gold badge in that years competitions will be eligible for a Platinum Badge. (They aren't required to buy 4 Gold badges, just achieve the Gold award standard at 4 events).

    The Platinum badge cannot be bought from the Stats office. It will be awarded free of charge at the end of that day's event.
