dcro 10,196 Posted July 4, 2019 #12 Share Posted July 4, 2019 I still can't believe that nations are allowed to enter two mixed teams in a same competition. That just doesn't make sense at all. It's not like your shooting performance depends on who are you shooting with. I guess that's just ISSF being pathetic in trying to make everyone happy. First they throw out established events to make Bach happy, and then they add this mindless rulling to keep the big nations happy. phelps and zob79 2 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is also the reason why I feel team events are relatively useless in shooting other than to award more medals to big nations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a way yes, but in another sense if the Olympics was the only thing keeping double trap alive then the blame can’t be all on the IOC, the ISSF clearly didn’t put in enough work fostering that discipline. Events can survive being dropped from the Olympics, sometimes they even come back (see: the madison).

Plenty of time to try to save it. Personally, i like it even more than skeet or trap. Ocassionally, yes. On the other hand, see what happened with running target. Olympic Games bring that vital ingredient for some sport to develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
