120 point+ people, not sure what you're thinking. Either too optimistic or I missed a strategy...

Yup... I can see 100 points for a very good shooter **if** the competition field is really strong and boulders are being continuously scored and returned to the playing field and a partner is working to feed you boulders.... However, if you are the only "strong" bot on the field (likely in a week 1 district event), you might struggle to score more than four or five boulders....
