Living 8 miles from the range helps-had to go load ammo once-for a re-shoot.

What exactly did it do to you to warrant this kind of hate ? Muzzle caught that ramp as my plant foot slipped. Shotgun hit the ground, i faceplanted and took a trip to dairy queen.

once benny finishes the one he's building for me, i'll post some.

Happy b-day, BE!

Shoot enuf slugs through w/o chokes and you'll be wondering where the threads were

I hate that barrel, i hate that barrel, i hate that barrel! Did i mention i hate that barrel?

+1. that barrel with the overhanging plywood runway on stage 11 got me.

Any IPA with a ton of hops. Stone Ruination, sierra nevada torpedo, rogue stuff-it's all good!

Macbook pro-the regular macbook and macbook air won't cut it-period.

Storm im3300-a beauty.

Craig-no problem with the file format-bring it right in to imovie...render at H264 and be done with it. Butch, All the reviews for the Canon's mention that the file format is a PITA in general and more so when working with the files on a MAC.... I know you run a Mac so what's your take on that aspect?

Canon HD. Whatever u get, pay the price and get HD.

Shhh! Don't tell anyone. That optic is great...had it on an 1100 for 6 months. Green is cool

dude-you had the guts to post it...nuff said. it sux-but somebody here said, "we race, sometimes we crash".

lived in a golf course community for the past 19 years-two courses throughout the development. had the strangest dream last nite. dreamt a couple buddies and i grabbed a few MGM flashers and two golf carts and set up a flasher on each preceeding green. idea was to shoot the 18 holes in par of 18. guess we never carred about where the misses went but we had a blast on the long par 5's! strange. woke up wondering if it would be worth a try...

here's stages 7 & 10:

he's no chuck norris!

old adage-there are those who have DQ'd and there are those who WILL DQ. yep, true. first stage, day 2 of superstition. simplest stage of the match. holstered hot pistol, shotgun in hand. shoot 6 clays, six poppers, dump shotgun, grab pistol and shoot 6 paper while applying pressure to dummy's chest. piece of cake. doing this for 25 years, 3 gun for about 20. i've abandoned pistols, rifles and shotguns enough to know it in my sleep. IAC, i shoot the first 3 clays and 3 poppers, shove in a stick, move over and finish the other 3 clays and poppers, engage the safety and head around the barrels to dump the shotgun. typical dump barrel with some plywood inside to hold the shotgun downrange. as i got to the barrel to dump the shotgun, my plant foot slips, i hit the muzzle against the plywood pice above the barrel and my shotgun comes out of my hand. was like slow-mo as i watched it head to the ground...couldn't grab it. E-6 and i'm done. i'm sure i'll get over it but have played it back in my mind so many times i'm still sick. trip to dairy queen from a big match sux. here's the vid-don't do this at home...

Here's "Alamoshooter" shooting stage 10-all buckshot stage:

Here's the stage in question, Stage 8. there were 3 banks of 3 targets, all programmed to show themselves at various intervals. distances were about 75, 178 & 300 yds. all 9 targets required 3 hits for them stay down. only one popped up at a time. the program went something like this. the first target appeared at the middle array, briefly, then a target from the short array, briefly, then one from the long array...again, very briefly. then, the 2nd target from the middle array appeared, one from the close array, then another from the far. repeated until each of the 9 had appeared to complete the initial appearance of all 9 targets. the program continued to pop up targets, in differing sequences than the original 9, at longer periods of time. plus, the program delayed popping up targets for in some cases, a long time. IAC, given the scoring was either neutralized (3 hits), not neutralized (less than 3 hits) or not hit at all, the penalties weren't substantial. the initial sequence of appearing each target once took about 37 seconds or so. so the game plan became just shoot at the initial sequence and try to neutralize as many as you could, and at least hit the others. i got out of there in 38.12 seconds, and ate 3 un-hit targets worth 30 seconds, and 5 un-neutralized targets for another 25 seconds...ending up with a run of 93.12. gaming? not really, just taking advantage of the way the stage was scored. video here:

Great stages, but got a trip to Dairy Queen 1st stage this morning. Guess it had to happen sometime...

Agree 100%. Just too bad the stage was designed that way...did end up saving a bunch of expensive Noslers... +1. Its not really that different from deciding to shoot outside the shooting box and eat a procedural or leaving a couple of the 300y larues standing... Would doing that get stages thrown out as well? Should all stages where people decide its better for their score to eat a penalty at some point get thrown out?

St 8-wack a mole, gamed to the max. 50/50 it get's chucked.

California-nevermind...

Projectile vomiting at Larues!
