As I was processing the last score updates that I received, I noted one of Dave Strycharz targets scored a 108.0. That made me wonder how many times anyone has fired a 108 or higher. I found only one, also by Dave that was a 108.1. Given the highest score that could be recorded would be a 109, breaking 108 is quite a feat. Congratulations on that score.
