Don't worry about your league's average. You keep your own average. You are shooting against yourself anyway. If you currently have a 24+ average, then congrats to Ya. Keep up the good work. League's are League's. ATA average's are the real deal. Anyone can look up your score average and know your known ability.
Your League had to do what they did. Since their were many teams that never played this dismantled team!!! It would be wrong to penalize the teams that never got to play this team? would it not. So some shooters will take a hit while others will gain from the teams that did play them when there scores are dropped. It is, what it is. Sorry to hear you were on the losing end. This time!!! What comes around, goes around. You know that. Meanwhile, keep up the good work. Keep your mental edge sharp, the season isn't over yet. Use this to your advantage, and go out there and stay in the positive. Don't let this, spin you around and go the other way!!! The choice is yours. Good Luck and don't forget to break em all.

Individual averages should stand, if there is a team point system, that is what should go.

That sounds like government accounting

Here's what I want you to do. After the league ends for the season, mark your calendar for 3 months. Then casually ask 3 people from the league, randomly chosen, what your score was. I guarantee none will know. Truth is, no matter where you are shooting (league, ATA, etc) NO ONE cares about your score except you. You are shooting for yourself. Yes, sometimes it matters because there is money on the line, but not very often. Most times, you are shooting for yourself. Never forget this, and just enjoy every shot.

What they should have done is created a "bye week" for the teams that hadn't shot that team yet. Each team shooting the bye team would have to break their team average or above for a win. If they broke below their average it would count as a loss. Your individual averages would still count towards high gun. That is the way we handle it in a league I shoot in.

As a wise old trap shooter once told me, if you shoot a good score nobody really cares and if you shoot a bad score they care even less.
You have a good average and good for you, keep shooting good and everything will shake out in the end

Thanks for the encouragement guys. I'm going to try even harder to keep my own average up.
Thanks DPort, I wondered if there was a way to address the issue without penalizing or giving advantage to individual shooters.

If you are near the top, yes other shooters are watching because they want to beat you and they care what you shoot. You shot your 50 straight and deserve the patch, they may have abolished the scores from counting for the leagu, but can’t abolish your accomplishment. Tell them you earned and deserve the patch so keep it.

You should get points for every week you payed to shoot. If there is a payout for points they should refund your money for those weeks they removed, or count the points.
