Chris Keen Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Wow! That's huge! :cheers; So just how hard will it be to get a slot to shoot that match? And who would we have to ask? Obviously, I'd like to attend. I'll even carry the Presidents range bag if necessary! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Keen Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Wow, that's HUGE! Can I put in for a slot NOW? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jar Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Wow, that's HUGE! Can I put in for a slot NOW? Seriously. Shooting this is now on my goals list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritinUSA Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Method of getting a slot to the 2014 World Shoot would most likely be the same as it has always been. The President announces a waiting list and you send the President an email asking to be on the list. I think its first-come, first-served but may be wrong. Perhaps they could do a lottery or something, either way its handled by the President (Regional Director). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D__ Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 ...getting a slot to the 2014 World Shoot ... As an outsider looking in - it's going to very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikegot38 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 If in Florida, it needs to be in late October on November. It was way to rainy and hot at Universal Shooting Academy for the IDPA Worlds which just ended 8 days ago. Having said that, I want to be there even if it is 105 degrees, 100% humidity and rain every day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Keen Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 What he said ....... I will if if would do any good. Although I think most of the USPSA cadre are in attendance in Greece as we sit here chomping at the bit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritinUSA Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 According to a post on the IPSC Global Village, there are issues with wifi signal/bandwidth at the range. They are working on the problem and hope to have the live-streaming working tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Anderson Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I'm sure there will be a process for applying for slots. The good news is it's here. The bad news is the slots are still divided among the regions. We only received 76 (I think) slots for the shoot in Greece. Hopefully we'll get more for 2014 since this year there was a bit of an issue with that. However, demand is going to far outstrip supply for available slots no matter what we do. Mike and Phil are both in Greece right now. I wouldn't count on there being any decision made until they get back, and until the President election goes through. The 2014 will be during the tenure of whoever wins this election. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritinUSA Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 (edited) What he said.... Also planning for an event this size takes a lot of work and time as there are so many parts to it. I suspect that work will begin this year. Edited October 3, 2011 by BritinUSA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Anderson Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 What he said.... Also planning for an event this size takes a lot of work and time as there are so many parts to it. I suspect that work will begin this year. Manny and Frank have been working on this for a while now. Going back more than a year. In fact I have the feeling that the range improvements they did a while ago were in preparation for this WS bid. I haven't talked to Frank recently but my conversations with Manny have me feeling very positive this will be a great match. And the best part is, they have their own ammo company on the site. No trying to get ammo shipped! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maksim Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 This will be epic, either to shoot or even to fly down to watch. If they plan this right, would be a great event for the media. Where are the 2012 and 2013 events to be held? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jar Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Where are the 2012 and 2013 events to be held? The world shoot is held every 3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 IF you really want to get a slot now, put your name in to RO or assist (IROA preferred, but there's usually not enough of them to go around) and the like. You'd shoot the pre-match, but would be there for the very-whole thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
