Our system has electronic counters. You get 27 targets for each token. Two are for breakage. You are not supposed to shoot the two extra targets when you shoot unless you need them. We were having a lot of drive offs for years. I personnally saw five people last Spring shoot a round of skeet and drive off. And like KY Jon said, you have the people who want to shoot extra targets all the time. Then of course you have the people who shoot trap with the voice activated speakers who want to stand and scream at each other while they are shooting and all the time birds keep flying out into the field- not being shot at. The token system puts a stop to that, too. Ours seems to work well. It just took a while for it to catch on. I remember a few years ago when everyone complained about the voice activated speaker system and said that it would never work either. But it has really caught on. With the token system you can go out to the club, even if no one is there and if you already have tokens, all you have to do is put it in the box and you can shoot a round of trap. With the skeet, you have to have someone to pull for you. On the days that the clubhouse is open, we do have a button/box that you can use for only one person. It has a delay switch, so all you have to do is push the button and wait five seconds and then it throws a target. But, our main concern was theft and the token system should correct that problem.
