So you keep Holy Water in a pocket holster?
I’ve often thought that golf would be much more interesting if it was like biathlon, with the elapsed time for the round being part of your score. No carts. Scoring would encourage running between shots. Which clubs and how many to carry would be part of the strategy.

Yes, instead of pepper spray 😜

Trying the weight of the rifle wasn't really part of the event. Leaving them at the line was fairly common in winter biathlon at the club-level events - mostly by youth, novices, and participants using club-lent rifles (there were also some people who had gotten a rifle, but hadn't rigged it up to be slung on their back just yet). The decision more or less came down to speed - carrying it with you allowed you to shave seconds at the firing line, leaving it on the rack was more convenient on the course but slower at the firing line (particularly when the rule was that once the rifle was in your hands, you were to be walking). There didn't seem to be a decisive athletic advantage to ditching the weight until the more serious end of the field, where most competitors used some form of semi-standard Anschutz and focused on their ski equipment/technique.
Just my observations from having run a handful of events. As I was using borrowed equipment, I was asked to leave the rifle on the rack when I was done and I really didn't push how someone else wanted their equipment treated.
Grab your gun and bring in the cat.
