Benelli Chick Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) Well, there's good news and there's bad news!It's January 9, the date all the "newbies" have been waiting for, and I got a number of them into the match. Yeah! The sad news is, I couldn't get everyone in! We still have about 25 people on the waitlist at this time.We will be at SHOT, and after we get all the sponsors nailed down, we SHOULD be able to get some more people off the waitlist!I wish I could get everyone in, but facilities and time constaints just prohibit it! Keep sending those apps. Turns out I got quite a few people in last year after this point, so there is still hope!Sent emails to all the newbies that I received apps for - one way or the other! Hope to see all of you in August! Denise Edited January 9, 2016 by Benelli Chick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camazama Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Hmmm....may need to find out if any of my Colorado friends are driving down and what the chance is of hitching a ride. Thanks Gentlemen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benelli Chick Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 Colorado Springs can be cheaper (by far) depending on the flight... :-) Denise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Sierpina Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 If you're renting a car, don't overlook that in the overall cost of the trip. Not to mention checked baggage fees. I fly into Albuquerque since Southwest doesn't go to Colorado Springs. Dollar rent a car is usually much cheaper there than Denver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benelli Chick Posted March 1, 2016 Author Share Posted March 1, 2016 Just a reminder about the Team match. 4 people teams, all different divisions (4 out of 5) EVERY team shoots the team stage as a team...it's semi-blind. Top teams shoot in the shoot-offs on Sunday. Cash pay back! All money in goes back to the shooters.

Also, if you are signed up for the team shoot, the stage ALL teams will shoot will have 2 rifle shooters with about 15 rounds each, 1 pistol shooter with around 20, 1 shotgun shooter with about 15 birdshot, 6 slugs.

sjs Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Denise, when will stage diagrams and descriptions be coming out? Also when will the competitors able to do a walk thru? Thanks for all your hard work!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benelli Chick Posted July 25, 2016 Author Share Posted July 25, 2016 You will get...ummm....relatively useless pictures in your match booklet upon check-in. With natural terrain...they are just general ideas. You have target count in email, on Facebook and Enos...also at http://rm3gworld.webs.com/about We do have 5 and two half stages on the ground...and target count is very close so far. (Had a small group come down/up to help us out today!) Competitors may walk through August 9-10, 2016 as long as the RO's are not shooting. You may watch them shoot, but need to stay back, so the RO's can have their own time on the stages. We also ask that you try not to ask them questions as we are trying to allow our RO's to shoot as well as they can....and you know how important concentration is! As you walk through, there will be an accurate(hopefully) stage diagram with briefing on each and every stage that you can read. Hope that helps!

This is why I love you Denise...and natural terrain matches. It's fitting b/c my stage plans normally consist of me having a general idea of what I'm going to do!
