While I won't be able to shoot it due to RO duties my wife has decided she wants to give it a try. She's a shooter so watch out boys! :)

I know the guys that put this match on and can say they are all first class folks. I would shoot it but am a little too old and busted up.

Joe, you may not be as young as you once were, but at least you still have your looks:) Thanks for the kind words!

Decided to start shooting again and why not start at my home range, which I haven't shot at in over 2 years. Payment sent.

He's alive! Great to hear you're getting back into shooting and glad you'll be joining us for the match in Sept! All those young-uns will definitely slow your match schedule down a bit won't they:)

PM sent, lots of positive changes out at the range in the past couple of years.

Although I won't be shooting, I'll be there RO'ing and helping. Can't wait to see whats in store this year. This is for sure one of the best matches around and ran by some awesome guys!!!!! Just don't tell them that, their heads might swell a bit.

R1, R2 & R3 are for the RO competition portion... 1 thru 5 are First through Fifth place and then there's top Mil. So there are 9 trophies all together.
 
Ok that's what I thought. Maybe I'll pick one of those up then. If not I may buy one that has my name in it or something if possible :) Looking forward to sponsoring, shooting and RO'ing again this year. Awesome event for sure!

Ryan really stepped up for us on this match!
between trophies, steel orders and everything else he has been great to work with...
great job once again Ryan!
 
Mailing my application tomorrow.

Is it possible to bring multiple rifles and run them?

No, the format of this match is that everyone will shoot one rifle and one pistol (the same one) on all the stages.
 
Hope its early enough to request 4 of the friends to be in same squad...

Well there goes my plan to use ar for short range and bolt for long...
:/
 
I will be there if I can scratch up the coin while there are still slots.
If we're going to have to run up to the top of that ridge again, I would like to suggest building a ski lift.

Running up the ridge: to be determined.....:)

That running uphill stage was no joke. But was the most fun of them all.
 
It agree it was a really fun stage to shoot.
When I got to the top of the hill the R.O. looked at me and said: "OK stop for a moment and take deep breaths. When you are no longer purple, approach the shooting box and make ready".
It's the first time I've ever been given the "breath deep" command. LOL
 
John's a cool guy. I helped RO that stage and got a lot of good laughes from the people hauling butt up the hill and having to make the off hand shot. The whole deal was if you missed you had to hit every other target to pick those points back up. We hope to have some awesome stages this year for everyone. I know John, David, Jim and a few others are putting a lot of time into it so expect another awesome match!

I loved the uphill stage. I hope all stages have some sort of more challenging obstacles than last event.

I just ordered one for my wife to shoot with specifically for this match. Actually just got a S&B ultra short on the way :) I'm thinking of stealing it for my gun.

Bring a few extra beast (mil versions) to sell as well. I'm sure they will go like hotcakes.

There will definitely be obstacles, some physical some technical, some technical and physical...all will be fun!

There better be some additional points for shooting the number signs. Lol
