    are the old wooden scoreboards, (where sheets of paper are stapled up and 2 guys post scores with magic markers,) still used at major shoots or has everything gone to tv monitors, apps, and online info?

    I know that it was always a thrill to me to see my name on the big board during the Vandalia Grands.

    Couldn't agree more. Still have some of those pics that you could buy from a guy that took 8x10 photos of the ''Big board''.
    My personal favorite is one that has Britt Robinson on the same pic.
    He had a 100x100, me not so much.
