rowdyb Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 I didn't shoot very well at O Nats and my confidence in shooting was shaken. Iron sighted gun still feels more familiar and I really gel well with my Prod gun. Odd as it sounds O Nats was a diversion because I could. I'm not shooting CO the rest f th year. Just some Lim/L1 here and there but Prod is the focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
race1911 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 gotcha, thanks for the reply....... how did the stages compare in difficulty, uniqueness, and fun factor between the Optics Nationals and Area 1 ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowdyb Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Optics Nats had much longer shots, much more of them. Things were apparent. A1 looked close and easy on the ground, but was a suck you into mistakes by being deceptive. In my opinion Nats was a much harder match. But I had more fun in the shooting of A1.

You are most welcome. considering the weather and such, the match went pretty well. Ken said that his staff was 97 people. It is amazing the amount of effort that it takes to run a near 600 shooter match! It looks like you had a reasonable match considering JJ was just on fire! I need to get over there and get in some reload practice! Aloha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worked stage 13 during the main match. One of the barrel stacks was placed incorrectly after the storm allowing it to be seen from a previously unseen shooting position. One squad was shot through the stage before it was realized. It was then 'fixed' with the idea that squad would just have to re-shoot the stage. However, the barrel stack was still incorrect and no one knew until the afternoon shooters came up and mentioned you shouldn't be able to see a double stack target array from a particular port. It was then determined to toss the stage. The weather really destroyed that stage and we tried very hard to get it fixed properly. It just didn't happen unfortunately so we ran it as a side match. All things being equal, I'm pretty happy the stage was tossed from the match however. It was a tough stage.

CHA-LEE Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 It was a fun match that tested many different skills. Just as it should be. I was surprised that we only lost one stage after the crazy wind they got on Thursday evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboslice Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 It was a great match (and my first major)despite having to shoot stage 7-12 Friday morning in the nastiness. Wish I could've shot everything in the dry/almost dry to see where I really stood overall as I'm trying to get better. Also, Robert thanks for being an awesome RO for 13 even though it was thrown out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be about right. I shot that stage first on thursday morning, freezing my buns off and not really having much clue about the swinger behavior. Worst stage of the match for me. would have loved to have been last shooter on that stage. I made a mental note to try to look you up in introduce myself but once the main match got going we were extremely busy.
