It's quite simple craigd.
It never seems to happen to those who shoot after shoot, year after year, are at the top of the leader board.
The one pellet break requirement for a perfect score is simply an attempt to explain a flawed analysis.
I can't state it any plainer, it's simply flat out incorrect.
Before I get more of the 'that's just your opinion' garbage from true believers remember this is the very nature of internet discussion boards.
I, for one, am not about to call Kim Rhode and tell her the whole game is a statistical farce.
On the other hand . . . for those of us who are mere mortals, it's quite possible--perhaps even probable--that at least one single pellet break would show up in a 25 straight at trap or skeet. We're simply not good enough to center the target with every shot. Which means we may sometimes luck into a 25 straight, thanks to what could have been a miss but ended up a single pellet break. Or, unluckily, ended up with a 24 because we had a single pellet hit that did not result in a broken target.
