WANTED SHOOTERS FOR
hopalong replied to Sudden Death's topic in Multi-Gun, Rifle & Shotgun Match Announcements
This was my second trip to Owensboro for the KY 3-gun. Neither of them were a dissapointment (except my own performance). Gary did a bang up job of organizing, got all the help he needed an it showed. Good job Gary. Chris did most EXCELLENT on begging, borrowing and stealong for the prize table. (Chris, tell my guy Chad how to do that please ) Congrats to Mike, Chris, Robert, and My man Rodney on their match wins. He and Tom Carpenter both shot on my squad, was fun watching them battle back and forth. I hope My guys and gals at the MS 3-gun Challenge can somewhat compare to Gary's match. Thanks, to all especially the range officers and the great sponsors. Hopalong 2009 MS 3-gun Challenge MD -

Matt, There are about 5 or 6 revolvers signed up. Bill B and I are shooting Saturday the others are Friday or Sunday. (one must be ging to be and RO ?) John Jawor is signed up so it'll be you and him for KY bragging rights I think, Bill and I are from TN so we'll be going for TN bragging rights. What ever you shoot, I'll see you there. Sorry you had to skip IRC. Hop

Rob, The reload is pretty slick once you get used to doing it. My scout rifle trigger is a nice 3 1/2 lbs ......2 1/2 first stage, one more second and I have yet to have a AD/ND. Just remember to take your bang finger out of the bang hole while reloading ! Now I just need to rebarrel the thing. ($$$$) Hop

I'll feel sorry for you Kentucky boys when my co-pilot takes all your trophies and bragging rights. Hop -
Wow !!!! I'm glad things worked out for the trip down. There is an OBVIOUS reason that the MS Classic is the PREMIER revolver match in USPSA (for now). The stages are always fun yet challenging in different ways every year. The staff ALWAYS has a cheerful smile, and a kind word. The weather usually is great (just a little humid this year) and get this................ We were told everyone was ahead of schedule and to slow down. Congrats to Elliot he held off a hard charging Robert Konrady and Bill Baldock (Nashvillebill) for a well deserved match win. (Maybe that is why he's a GM ?) Tommy Cabbell has defended his Mississippi Champion Title, but each year it's getting tougher and tougher. I myself did Pretty good, derailed Saturday after lunch and couldn't get it back together until too late, but that is the way it goes sometimes. Hats off to John and the rest of the Mississippi Classic Staff, you guys/gals did a great job it just gets better and better. Hopalong

Just a way to recognize the "speedloader guys/gals" get enough of them and we'll do something more. Come have fun !!!! The "challenge" is for you non revolver shooters to beg, borrow or buy a revolver and come shoot a major uspsa match and bump elbows with some of USPSAs best revolver shooters and Best Auto shooters that sometimes shoot a revolvers and maybe even some National Champion autoshooters that don't normally shoot one, but have already accepted the "Challenge" Hop Any questions, please ask.
