If breaking the most targets wasn't a goal of the shoot, why shoot? Why not just smoke cigars and drink brandy and "hangar fly" (talking about something you're not doing)?

On the otherhand, organizers might want to consider shifting the focus a bit and adding awards for fun stuff like: largest smoke screen (black powder guys), lowest score, highest score per gauge, most double crossing shots broken with one shot, most zero score stations, etc. You get the idea.

I recall a aerobatic flying club I belonged to had a lowest score without zeroing any maneuvers for rookie year competitors that was given at each contest. It was a much covetted leather belt with all the aerobatic symbols tooled into it.
