Sorry to hear about the deer Don, hope everyone is OK... Really glad you guys were able to make it up for the match.

I'm looking a the IOS vesion on my IPad right now and for a "Time Plus" match the "export match registration" option does not seem to be there. I have an "import Registration" option, but no export. I agree that uploading to practiscore is the way to go and that is what I did, but i'd like to send the shooters an e-mail with a link to let them know where to go to see the results. Time Plus matches do not seem to have the "export match stages and scores" option either.... any other suggestions anyone can think of? is anyone else using the time plus scoring? Sure i'm just missing something simple, but can't seem to figure it out

I used Practiscore for registration and can't seem to find a way to get my shooter info OUT of practiscore. I want to get all the e-mail addresses so I can send them all match results and I want to add all their info to my shooter database. Would also like to dump match results out as .csv to add to my combined match database. I set up the match in the Time Plus Penalties format which seems to offer less export options than the USPSA format? Anybody dealt with this before?

Scores are posted! It was our first time with the electronic scoring so if anyone has any concerns please feel free to email or message me. http://practiscore.com/match-results/uuid?uuid=1AE5C742-AF37-4B2A-9E58-E4CFF118112C A great group of shooters showed up and shot really well! We had all skill levels represented from our overall match winner Rustin Bernskoetter to several brand new shooters. We had folks make the drive in from Iowa, Kentucky, Tennessee, Kansas, Indiana, Texas, Missouri, and all over Illinois. Thank you to everyone who made the trip out. Giving shooters quality matches is what this is all about and I hope we were able to do that. Special thanks to all our sponsors, AP Industries, The Korte Company, Brownells, Rampart Range, The Shooters Source, BoomerShooter, Nordic, and MGM! Thanks again to all those that helped set up and the RO's that volunteered their time to help run the match. We know we asked a lot of you guys especially when you add in trying to learn new scoring software. All of your efforts are much appreciated!

Started setting up stages today, looks like this is going to be a great venue. Weather is supposed to be perfect, so this thing should be a really good time!

The gun winner will be chosen by random draw, but we also have several big boxes of prizes from our sponsors that will be distributed by both random draw and order of finish along with some pretty cool awards for high shooters in each division... Huge thanks to all our sponsors for everything they have sent for the match!!!

Don't let a little thing like not having guns hold you back...if you show up we'll make sure you have guns to shoot!

You'll just need to show up on the 10th to find out

Huge thanks to Rampart Range in Pocahontas, IL for donating a bad ass new COR15 M4 for our November match !!! We'll be giving the rifle to one lucky shooter complete with AP Customs' new rifle length tactical carbon fiber hand guard

Everything will be under 200 yds for this one, but there will be some "challenging" shots

Not planning to post stages, we like to throw in a surprise or two. ....4 stages are in bays that are close together and close to parking, the other two stages can be driven to. We've got some pretty cool stuff planned, it should be a great time!

Would i be better off running practiscore on the nook color or the NST? anyone have experience with both? Comparison of ease of setup? Screen visibility in sunlight? battery life? any assistance that anyone can offer is much appreciated. Jeremy

Got preliminary stage design done this weekend, this thing is going to be freaking awesome!

Anybody want to give a detailed description of how to set up practiscore on an NST? Any real issues when you sync back to an iPad? Any other real issues with these devices? I'm wanting to get something setup in time to use on our November 3-Gun match, 6 stages, expecting around 100 shooters and do not want to do all that tabulation after the match. Thanks, Jeremy

Thanks Mark! I found where I can edit that...very cool...

How does this work for 3-gun? How do you input penalties for FTE and FTN or other penalties like failure to rotate a spinner 360 degrees? I just started researching this, but it seems like it's designed to be fairly purpose specific to USPSA? Any body using this for 3 -gun that can comment?

Here are the rules we will be using for the November 3-Gun Match. Pretty typical stuff. Please let me know if you have any questions... Thanks, Jeremy G3G Match Rules.pdf

Just remember to take the carry gun off before you cross into Illinois and everything will be just fine

Gateway 3-gun is pleased to announce our November Regional 3-Gun Match to be hosted by the World Shooting Complex in Sparta Illinois on November 10th! Please check us out on facebook Gateway 3-Gun Hope to see everyone there! G3G November Match.pdf

What time does check in start? Sitting at laquinta and they don't seem to know anything about it...

Midwest 3 Gun hosts a great match! Awesome range and really good stages, but it's like 3-1/2 hours away. There are a few of us from this area that make that drive every month, but it would be great to have something (besides pistol only matches) to shoot the rest of the month. And maybe little closer to St. Louis. We will continue to make sure we don't schedule our events to conflict with Midwest 3 Gun match dates...

Out of frustration for not having any type of local 3-gun or shotgun match within 3 hours of the St. Louis Metro Area I decided to try to do my part to help rectify the situation. I’m working with Aaron Parmenter from AP Customs (4x4 shell caddies) to start a monthly Practical Shotgun Match that will be held at 1 of 3 local St. Louis metro ranges each month to try to help bring some practical shooting to this area. We have had a ton of interest in the monthly matches so far and are hoping to be able to generate enough interest to possibly host a Major 2 day shotgun match next fall. We have convinced the ranges that are hosting the matches to use the money earned to help fund their youth and jr. shooting programs, we are making our targets available for use by the jr. shooters at each club prior to the matches, and we reduced match fees for jr. and lady shooters to encourage their participation. So far AP Customs, Brownells, and Nordic Components have all been very supportive and we are talking to a couple of metal target manufacturers to try to make it possible for us to get even more of the really cool stuff to make these matches as fun and challenging as possible. Anyone who happens to be in the area is welcome. Thanks, Jeremy Gateway Practical Shotgun Monthly Match Announcement.pdf
