    Due to the SIP, we canceled some of the free clinics we were hosting for shooters to learn and practice for a field match. It got me thinking, a rare thing many might say, but I decided to do a series of posts covering everything from debriefing a stage from last year's sold out match to tips and tricks for using PLRFs, tripods, arm-boards and examples/spoilers for our sold-out Field Match.

    Anyway, I just finished tripod tips for hunting or use in matches like ours that take place in hilly places. If you are already a rock star on your tripod and do not need a tip or have one of your own, or brand new, you're welcome to drop in and contribute.

    It is really in the wrong forum under "Local Matches," so I thought I'd share a link here.

    Tripod Tips for Feild shooting:
    The purpose is not so much for your regular flat range tripod shooting, and you might see a tip that looks funky until you understand what the goal is. I tried not only to talk about the concept but share "why" it works over what you might typically see on the internet.

    Here a stage debriefing: This gives an idea of what the match is like.

    This is a link to the original post, and you get a better idea of how it fits in, plus there will be a shortcut to individual topics.
