We did the aerial clays last year so "been there done that." Rest assured you will see them again.

Here is what we have for round count. Keep in mind it is draft. I don't want to say final until the correct amount of steel is on site and the RMs have reviewed the stages. There are no aerial clays, slugs, or buckshot in either match. Slings will not be need. The shooter will have options on which gun to use on some tgts. It's not a new concept but is good one. When the shooter looks at a stage a decision must be made not only on how to proceed but also in some cases which gun to use or when to transition.
It's always a good idea to bring twice the ammo you think you need to any match. Remember if a magnet sticks to a rifle bullet leave it at home. Figuring 1 rd per steel and 2 per paper:
The Am rd count is rifle ~80 to 55, pistol ~110 to 90, and shot ~55 to 45.
The Pro rd count is Rifle ~100 to 75, pistol ~140 to 80, and shot ~100 to 60.

I was at the Rock today working on the ProAm. The pistol match was set for tomorrow. I took a peek and whoever is doing stage design and set-up has their act together. Looking good guys..........

No slings or vestigial appendages will be needed.
-
Bryan that will be a good guess. I'll post a round count in a few days. The stages will be posted in about two weeks. We are not planning any buck or slugs. I have not made a final decision on aerial clays..... suppose I need to check with Air Miller?? The Pan Am MG stage 6 with flying clays and a MGM spinner created the most banter.

We finished the stage setup today so we are ready to go................

Yes, there are still slots. I'll have the stages posted soon.

A5 and PASA were great as always. Since most of the Nationals seem to have found a permanent home on the left coast A5 is becoming the Nationals for the Eastern half of the country.

Rockcastle is working on a real estate development project.

Another great week at ROCKCASTLE. Nobody can put a shotgun match together like Joe.
-
I'm working on getting the stages together.
-
Anymore info onthis the 13th is coming fast. Can we use the test sign in sitefor the match sign in
Yes, and the test site is open for use.
-
I've been working on the submit button also plus a little on stage design. Even if you get on the waiting list stay registered. Last year most everyone on the waiting list got to shoot the match.
-
Any chance that this match will go with the wonderful half-day format this year, instead of the shoot-one/skip-one slotting from past years? Having done both, I really think the half-day format gives the shooters a much better opportunity to participate in side-matches and spend time browsing vendor booths. Last year, despite three separate trips down to the Cave, I was never able to shoot that side match because the wait times were consistently longer than my between-stage breaks.
Either way, I am still looking forward to shooting at Rockcastle again!
Thanks, we'll take a look at the 1/2 day format. The ProAm has some unique challenges.

Any idea when registration will be opening?
Registration is planned for Feb 13th.
Where would we register? Just want to make sure i don't need to be signed in somewhere prior. Thanks.
Registration will be on-line. When Linda C gets the details squared away info will be posted on the ProAm, here on enos, and on the BoomerShooter sites. Info will be posted well in advance.

I already have hotel reservations. Had to cancel last year due to illness. Off topic somewhat but will there be any kind of big match @ ORPCI in Ky?
Unfortunately we are not hosting a KYMG this year. I do want to bring it back at some point. I'm MD for three matches at Rockcastle this year along with all the ORPCI Club stuff we do (orpci.org). Plus I shot ~ 40 matches last year and plan to again this year. I do enjoy working but it's still more fun to shoot'em.
Look me up when you get to the ProAm.
40 matches? That's awesome!
The matches were mostly club, mostly within three hours drive, and mostly pistol. it's all good..........

FYI, 3Gun Nation is on the Pursuit channel and the Sportsman's channel. I don't want to get off subject but they have been a big supporter of the ProAm as well as many other multi gun matches around the country. If you know of a new shooter interested in attending the ProAm or just anyone that needs to see what multi gun is all about this show is an opportunity.

Due to popular demand ???? Kurt and Trapr will be back as RMs next year.
-
Katie and I will be back as RO's if Gary will have us!!
Thanks, I'll send you a post.
