I think it should be done but not initially as a sanctioning organization but as a promoter of the sport. It seems like many of the traditional disciplines are falling apart almost by neglect while of newer shooting disciplines receive lots of promotion.

I was following the NRL22 organization on instagram. Partly because I wondered what it was about. They do a really good job of promoting the sport on social media. I think silhouette would benefit from a coordinated promotional effort. This could morph over time to a separate sanctioning organization as needed.

They excell at lobbying. Its what they do. I will give them money for that
But running Silhouette? They should leave it to the shooters.

Luckily Lots of clubs are having matches anyway. No need for NRA. Its just shooting, no permissions needed.

Score keeping and Score View Apps in the works

Video samples.
They need testing. 2 clubs signed on as beta testers so far.
But scores can be kept with or without fancy apps.

Intelectual Property? How many nations have Silhouette shooters?
NRA just copied from Mexico anyway.

Who is ready? I am. We can at least keep scores in the interm.
Not certain what the new normal will be, but we are creative we will be just fine.

(Go ahead bash me I can take it)

Personally speaking, the books were better than this new system. I think the newer system is more work than the books were.
But that's just me.

FYI.
