[hippyshake]

Im interested in sponsoring this match, anyone have a contact?

 

[kocoa88]

DieselWSM would be your route to sponsorship.

 

[hippyshake]

Good news guys, Ive got two data books, three triad wedgies, a TIS sling and a couple of skid plates enroute for the prize table.

 

[DieselWSM]

Thanks Hippyshake! Prize table sponsorship is always appreciated!

 

[5Shot]

That rocks Clint! We met briefly at the reception (I am the holster guy) - nice to see you honor your friend and his family.

If you want any handgun leather for the prize table, let me know.

 

[JC Steel]

I will be heading to New Mex. for the Scorehigh tactical match, BUT JC Steel Targets would be honored to throw some targets on the prize table.

And let me know what the final count on numbers is. We will give a 3x5 Diamond target to all who shoot, and all the RO's.

Have fun

Jake

Im really digging the way everyone comes together to help eachother out on here.

Im still just hoping that I wont spend as much time walking up hill as I did a jakes match lol.

[steveptr]

Well I'm in. Looks and sounds like another great challenge for my learning curve.

 

[TEAMSENDIT]

This is an excellent location for a real field match!! The guys running this have years of experience and this truly is a great cause!! Not one you want to miss

 

[Triad]

Good news guys, Ive got two data books, three triad wedgies, a TIS sling and a couple of skid plates enroute for the prize table.

Hippyshake,

I put a small token gift in the box for the prize table. Not much, but something.

 

[hippyshake]

A great many thanks steve.

Side note, i get a call this morning from steve to sort something out with my order, he is literally the only dude that takes the time to call instead of email. This is why i buy so much of my gear from him.

 

[DieselWSM]

Thanks to everyone who is sponsoring so far!! I guarantee everyone who turns out will love this venue as Teamsendit mentioned.

 

[32Special]

Okay, I'm in. I just signed up, and got my confirmation email. This will be my first match. So far, none of the people I've met who shoot these matches are coming. However, I see that DIESELWSM is from the Tricities (I'm in Pasco) so I will likely recognize him. Anybody recommend a motel nearby? Thanks. Bob

 

[mjh30]

There's a place called the Willows I believe, look it up online.

 

[32Special]

MJH30,

Thank you for the tip on Willows. I made my reservations. Sounds like they only had a couple of rooms left.

Thanks again,

Bob

Bob,

This will be a good match to get some experience on since we will have a little bit of everything (high angle, movers, positional, etc.). You will have a good time and this beats the hell out of shooting paper any time. I have managed to shoot every field match hosted so far in 2013 in the state of WA and I have never met anyone from tri cities who shoots the field matches...maybe we should convince them to come up

If you have any questions about the match feel free to send me a message and I will help you out as much as I can (cant spoil any of the stages so I wont be able to tell you everything haha)

Thanks,

Clint

 

[DieselWSM]

Still have some room left for the match! If you are interested, get signed up.

Some good sponsors for the prize table as well.

Thanks again to everyone who has committed so far.

Clint

 

[DieselWSM]

The match will now accomodate hunting rifles as well (still under a .300 win mag) for those who dont own a "tactical" rifle.

 

[Jim the Plumber]

I'm in on this one and will also bring prize table goodies.

 

[DIBBS]

Well the toy/shooting/hobby account is running on fumes, but I'll try to sweet talk the CEO.

 

[DieselWSM]

Awesome Jim!! Glad you are going to make it!! Fantastic controlled chaos on the mover stage this weekend! haha, that stage was great.

Let me know what your company name is so I can get it on the sponsor list.

 

[DieselWSM]

Thanks to the following sponsors

Benchmark Barrels
H&H Precision

 

[DieselWSM]

More Sponsors

Couldnt load all the sponsors in one page...

 

[DieselWSM]

We still have a few slots open. Again, we are setup to host those who want to compete with "hunting" rifles as opposed to precision field gear.

Thanks again for all the support and help in getting this match up and running.

 

[Camsnappersc]

Sounds like we will have a good turnout. Cant wait to shoot in honor of Matt.

 

[mailman]

Matt got me hooked on this long range game. Looking forward to meeting and shooting with you guys. See you there.

 

[mjh30]

looking forward to this match tomorrow for a worthy cause.

 

[DIBBS]

Anyone have any pictures/results/rumors?

 

[mjh30]

Craig, no photos, a beautiful day, a great location, great course of fire, and all for a very worthy cause. My hat is of to Clint, Carl, Brent and all the other who volunteered their time to setup, and those who came out and ro'd. A great day of shooting, followed by a little pistol shooting, some barbecue and those up to the challenge, a little shooting at a mile, ( congratulations to Alex Taylor for his hits at that distance). The top three shooters were Sean, Jeremy and Marty, it was a great time with many staying late to mingle and talk.

 

[Jim the Plumber]

A shot of the pistol stage with brass flying

Had a great time!

 

[steveptr]

A lot of fun! Thanks a lot for putting this together.

 

[DieselWSM]

The match was a great time and thank you to all those who contributed as helpers, ROs, and sponsors. Matt's father made it up to the match and mingled with quite a few shooters and we were glad to have him. Thank you to In Motion Targets, H&H Precision, and James Karstetter for sponsoring the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place cash prizes. A number of other sponsors contributed great prizes that the shooters devoured!!

- 5 Shot Leather
- Precision Tactical
- JC Steel Targets
- Benchmark Barrels
- Center Mass
- High Speed Shooting Systems
- Triad Tactical

Overall the match raised over $2000 for the scholarship of Matt's children. At times the wind proved difficult, especially those stages where wind 3 different canyons were in front of the targets.


Thanks again to all who participated!!! Next year we hope to include gas guns as well as this years bolt rifles and pistols.

 

[scimitar2]

Wish I could have made this one. Stuck out in the field training. Hopefully next year I will be able to make it. Any information on the courses of fire, thoughts on equipment, etc from the competitors?

Thanks for honoring a warrior in this way!

 

[idaho1]

Wish I could have made it. Hopefully you will run it a gain next year.

 

[32Special]

It was a great match, and the smoked tri tip at the end was TOPS!
THANKS for putting it on!

Bob
