Welcome!

It would be nice. Finding local matches is an issue. I used simple free Wordpress sites for the IL Section & Area 5 match signup page that should be in my signature line. Not very pretty pages, but there is some basic functionality & information. I am far from a web designer. I got help for some of it. Even if it was just a base page with links to the other Section/Club pages that could be easily edited, it would be nice. Someone was talking about creating an Area 5 forum/site, but I don't know if that went anywhere. Something might be in the works. Don't know. It sounds like the inclination & the hosting is already there.

Welcome from Central IL!

Not yet but soon.

The staff squads are just placeholders. The MD usually has people break out into squads of their own choosing with no more than 6 or 7 shooters per squad and then sends them to staggered stages to start. Staff will be listed in self squadding.

Match is fully staffed with a standby list. There are still two day slots left.

There are 13 two day spots left & 34 for Saturday all day.

Fixed file is on the USPSA site now. Worked for me.

Welcome Brad! Some Central IL resources in my signature.

Sent an email to HQ since it's not just me.

Has anyone else gotten an error when trying to update EZWinScore classifications with the January 16 2014 file? I have tried two machines.

I think that if you get some old grips you can remove material to make them a bit thinner.

If you are in Springfield, IL we have an indoor shoot every Thursday evening from 5-8pm. Hopefully Bloomington will be starting up indoor practice soon.

Welcome! Oops misread. If you are south, you might visit the sites in my signature line. Dirk

Will announce when the IL Sectional match is finalized. Still working with people on it.

Only 18 spots left for Saturday Afternoon/Sunday Morning.

S&A magwell. Cobra.

Welcome DonLucky13! Been hearing good things about your bullets.

Glad to have you. I think you are probably in the running for longest distance to travel for the match!

Howdy & Welcome!

Plenty of testimonials on here for both Springer Precision & Canyon Creek. Those are the two I have shot that should give you a good pistol either way. Might save some money buying straight from them.
