The Kansas Coyote Chaos Finale (November, Twin Peaks Rifle Club) is the season championship match, crowning the overall season champions in Open and Factory classes.
- Eligibility to Win Season Championship: To qualify for the season title, overall rankings, and any season awards (e.g., champion trophy), a shooter must compete in at least 3 regular-season Kansas Coyote Chaos matches in the same class (Open or Factory) during the current season. Switching classes mid-season requires a shooter to complete 3 matches in at least one class.
- Finale Participation: The Finale is open to everyone—no minimum matches required to enter. All shooters can compete for the day’s prizes, trophies, distance dog tags, and bragging rights (standard entry fee applies).
- Season Points Calculation: Season standings are determined by adding a shooter’s highest 3 regular-season scores plus their Finale score (which counts as double points).
- Example: If a shooter’s top three regular-season scores are 31, 29, and 28, and they score 35 points in the Finale (doubled to 70), their final season total is 31 + 29 + 28 + 70 = 158.
- Shooters with fewer than 3 regular-season matches have no qualifying top-3 scores and are ineligible for season champion (but can still shoot the Finale for day prizes).
- Finale Scoring Impact: The Finale is a double-points match. The points earned in the Finale are doubled before being added to the shooter’s top 3 regular-season scores.
- Final Season Ranking: The shooter with the highest combined total (top 3 regular + doubled Finale) wins the class championship.
- Tiebreakers: Ties for season champion are broken first by the doubled Finale score or head-to-head results if needed.
- Tracking: Points and standings are updated after each match on the Kansas Coyote Chaos website or via email updates. Final season totals will be calculated and announced after the Finale.
This keeps the emphasis on showing up consistently for your best performances while making the Finale a true high-stakes closer—perform big in November and you can still climb the leaderboard dramatically. Come shoot, beat the wind, and claim the season crown!
