Many, many thanks to the shooters who traveled to San Antonio for the 2013 Texas Single Stack Championships! Congratulations to 2013's Texas Single Stack Champion Jeremy Reid. Jeremy won stages 1, 4, 5, 7, and 8 showing once again his strength in the Single Stack Division. Jeremy took home a nice trophy, a cash prize and the traditional bottle of tequilla in the special glass bottle shaped like a 1911. Last year's Champion, Tanner Larsson finished second overall and took home his share of the cash awards and the 1st Master Class trophy. Jacob Daude rounded out the top three. A Class Shooter Carlos Guzman finished 5th overall B Class saw 7 competitors with Zeb Pomerenke taking first place and earning a trophy and cash prize. Brian Quick and Steve Jolly finished 2nd and 3rd B Class. Mr. Quick took how the High LE trophy. C Class had enough shooters to warrant three trophies and cash awards to the top two shooters. Jerome Hansen earned the 3rd place trophy, Michael McKinney the 2nd place trophy and Michael Fiorenze the 1st place trophy and finished in the top 10. Unclassified was the largest field and J. G. Garza, with "Pend" by his name took home the Cliff Watson Honorarium "Unclassified Yet Still Classified" trophy... and a refund of his match fee to boot. High Senior (which include a few of the Super Seniors as well) was won by Ted Bonney who also finished 6th overall. We we able to give back over $1000 in cash prizes and trophies. Thanks to VERY generous donations from Suppressed Tactical Solutions and SOS of Texas we also gave away over $2000 in prizes from the random drawing at the prize table and we saw those prizes spread across the State. Seriously, look to give SOS of Texas and Suppressed Tactical Solutions some business for VOLUNTEERING to provide product for the prize table and nice product at that. (I just signed on a FFA trust and will be getting a suppressor soon, you know it will be from Suppressed Tactical Solutions. The kids need some cool shades from SOS of Texas. http://www.suppressedtacticalsolutions.com/ www.soseyewear.com It got hot and I appreciate the cool tempers as we struggle through the troublesome stage 1 and the bottle neck at Stages 6/7. I heard lots of feedback, overwhelming positive and suggestions for improvement which have been taken to heart. We need to start earlier and we will. A few less movers and those will be used simply to avoid prop problems. And we will shoot this earlier next year in the cooler months as people are ramping up for the Single Stack Nationals. While I was the faceman for this shindig, the real work was done by Jason Miwa, Chris Gourley, Cliff Watson, Tom Pirtle, Boyd Blansett, Kat Sigler, and Keith Sigler. Without their efforts on Thursday and Friday evening and ALL day Saturday there would not have been a match. They looked full on cooked and worn out. I'm buying the drinks, let's make the date.

Matchbook updated. See above.

A local church smokes BBQ and sells it at the range to fund their mission work (feeding the homeless). BBQ plates with drinks will be available for $10.00. Please RSVP with me right away so I can place an order. I promised the Pastor a rough count this weekend and a tally by Friday, 8/23/2013. IF you do not place your order I will not garauntee you will have a plate. RSVP to deadeyeshooters@yahoo.com

Hey y'all. We have a prize table. SOS of Texas forked over 10 sets of eyewear! I just opened the box and checked 'em out- very nice, $40 - $150 in value, $750 total. Remember Ski and SOS of Texas! Damn skippy! https://www.facebook.com/SOSofTexas Also, Mark Jackson of Suppressed Tactical Solutions, LLC, called up out of the blue to make sure he was registered and... ponied up prizes. He sent me a picture of the loot he is hauling up her for the match. SWEET!!! Then I made certain he understood I wasn't giving up sexual favors for all those treats. Some of those prizes are labeled Benchmade, Luminox, has reference to GPS and a bunch of magazines! Mark! Way to come through. Thanks for supporting the sport! http://www.suppressedtacticalsolutions.com/ Man, I am happy we aren't sending shooters home with just a watch under their belt. I'm waiting to hear from a few more...

I only trust my 1911 friends to give good advice on guns.

no, ya didn't

Why would it get you in trouble? I just googled that up... looks like a S&W M&P- please tell me the trigger is better than the M&P.

I'm thinking of shooting a little production. Looking for a gun recommendation. I don't want a CZ- nothing wrong with 'em, but like a Glock, EVERYONE is shooting them- Glock or CZ, CZ or Glock. I'm not a big Sig fan either, too civy SEAL-fan boyish. H&K- not sure they could pay me. I'd prefer something proven to win so what's left? ETA: A friend who shoots an XDm recommended them- not just no, but hell no- because he shoots it. Tangfolio, a frenchman shoots one- not just no- but hell no (ok Eric G is a hellagood shooter, I just don't swing like that so Beretta's are out as well, besides, who can find an Elite anymore?)

I agree. Doomed. No posterboy status for me.
