Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Hi Folks, Just a quick note to let you all know that photos taken at the match by Michelle DeHan are now available for viewing at www.uspsa4.org. Folders are listed by the squad number. Shooter names and stage numbers are not shown. And not every squad was photographed but those that were show a lot of brass in the air if you look close. The photos are high res so allow some time to download them. Enjoy the pics and I'll see you on a range somewhere. Wayne Miller
  2. Hi Shooters, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all of you who braved the heat and humidity and participated in our match this weekend plus offer up a big "CONGRATULATIONS" to all of the winners. A very special "JOB WELL DONE" goes out to all of the ROs and staff who made all of this possible. And to my setup crew, well, all I can say is "You guys are the BEST!" Our sponsors provided almost $30,000 worth of goods for the prize table. This was the largest amount I have ever seen for the Area 4 Championship. Please show your support for them with your $$$ when you need shooting supplies and accessories. A special note for those of you who won a plaque but didn't receive one at the awards presentation. I'll be working up a list to send to ProTech this week and they will be asked to ship your plaque directly to you. If you forgot to write down your mailing address on the yellow tablet that was at the prize table please email me directly at wwmiller@suddenlink.net. And once again, Congratulations! Thanks for all of the positive emails. Take care and I'll see you on a range somewhere. Wayne Miller Match Director 2007 Area 4 Championship
  3. Hi Folks, I am pleased to announce that Match Polo shirts are now available for purchase with a credit card or PayPal on the Area 4 web site at www.uspsa4.org/matches.htm . They can be picked up at registration. The price is $25 each. A photo of the shirt and the match logo are posted on the web and here is the technical description of the shirt. Cotton Pique Polo with Jacquard Birdseye Trim, 100% preshrunk, contoured welt-knit collar and cuffs; 3-button placket; woodtone buttons; double-needle stitching throughout. Match logo on back, heart logo (Area 4) on the left breast. Sizes from Small to XXX are available. This is a pre-match order only and shirts will not be on sale at the match. I know it's short notice but Pre-orders end May 25th. If you have any questions or would like to order a shirt but won’t be coming to the match to pick it up please let me know and we can work out some kind of shipping arrangements. My email address is wwmiller@suddenlink.net . Thanks. See you at the range. Wayne Miller Match Director 2007 Area 4 Championship

  6. Hi Folks, I am pleased to announce that the Area 4 stages are finally posted on our web site at http://www.uspsa4.org/a4_2007_stages.aspx. There were some delays in getting them together and getting them approved but John Amidon signed off on them Tuesday. Our status for Level III Tournament has been approved. The official round count is now 297. If I missed it by a round or two I'm sure someone will let me know. Hah! See you at the range, Wayne Miller Match Director 2007 Area 4 Championship
  7. Hi Folks, The late entry fee for the Area 4 Championship has been extended to 5-15-2007. I have received inquiries from shooters who were attending Area 6 and the Arkansas Sectional about extending this deadline since it fell in the middle of the matches. The match application posted on the web and the online entry form have been updated to reflect this change. Thanks. See you at the range, Wayne Miller Match Director 2007 Area 4 Championship
  8. As soon as we get Amidon to sign off on them I'll list them on the Area 4 website and here on the Forum. Thanks
  9. Hi Folks, I’m pleased to make the following announcements. For the first time in many years we have made it possible for the staff and ROs to participate in the main match instead of the usual scaled down Staff Match. That's right. I’m talking about all 12 stages + chrono to be shot on Thursday. Your scores would be added to the main match results and you would get a trip to the main prize table in your order of finish. In order to accomplish this we have put into place some special rules. In order for a staff member or RO to participate they must be on the range early Thursday morning. We will pay for your rooms starting Wednesday night at the match motel. Staff not wanting to shoot need not be on the range until Friday morning at 7am so we will reserve your room beginning Thursday night. I can send you a separate Staff Entry Form so we will know who is shooting and how to make your room reservations. This will be the only ‘match’ option for a staff member if they want to shoot. There will not be a separate Staff Match/Prize Table. By all means you are welcome to shoot any of the stages ‘just for fun’. A staff member can begin shooting at 9am Thursday and will have until 6pm that evening to complete the stages. We ask that stage CROs make themselves available to us sometime on Thursday to inspect their stages, just in case. As stated above the staff’s score will be added to the main match no matter how many stages they complete and they will be entitled to walk the main prize table on Sunday in order of their finish. Staff members shooting on Thursday must show up for work on Friday and/or Saturday to be eligible for awards and the prize table. The second big announcement is that our Level I and II NROI seminars prior to the match have been approved by USPSA. Troy McManus will be the RMI for the CRO class and Ray Hirst the RMI for the RO class. We would like to take advantage of having so many students at the range by inviting some of them to stay and work with you on some of the stages. Please contact me if you have any questions and let me know if you hear of anyone who would be willing to work the match or might be interested in one of the NROI classes. Thanks again for your help and I’ll see you on the range. Wayne Miller Match Director 2007 Area 4 Championship
  10. Hi Folks, Yesterday I confirmed with Kim Williams of USPSA that we can indeed have both classes in June prior to the match. Troy McManus will be the instructor for the Level II class and Ray Hirst will conduct the Level I class. As verification she has added these classes to the NROI web site calendar of events. The classes show to be in Tyler, Texas. This is not accurate of course. Bossier City is the location but the computer links the classes to the host club. She added a comment to the listing to help correct this. The classes will start on June 6 at either the match hotel or at the range. I’ll know more about this as time goes on. Every effort will be made by Troy and Ray to complete these classes in one day but they are scheduled to last 1 ½ days. The cost would be $20 for the Level I course and $25 for the Level II. The additional expense required by NROI will be picked up by Area 4. Contact me for applications at wwmiller@suddenlink.net . Rooms at the match hotels have been reserved for staff as well as for students. Please contact any one of the 3 hotels to book your rooms. Special rates have been negotiated for us and those rooms are blocked under ‘USPSA’. I’ve attached excerpts from Kim’s email below explaining a few things. If you have any questions please contact me. See you there, Wayne Miller Match Director 2007 Area 4 Championship Kim’s Remarks..Directed to me as Match Director Level I This confirms your requested Level I Range Officer Seminar to be held June 6-7, 2007 . The name and email address of your instructor are noted below. Please contact him soon if you have not done so already. Below are some guidelines in order to insure a successful seminar. Your class has been posted on our website at www.nroi.org. You can email me at kim@uspsa.org Schedule the seminar to start promptly at 8:30 A.M. with the registration of students. The instruction will start at 9:00 A.M., and the first day will end around 5:00 P.M. Please note that these times are a general guideline and not set in stone. Due to instructor flight times, they are subject to change. Your instructor will let you know if he wishes to change the schedule for the weekend. Check with him first! All seminar fees and applications must be given to the instructor on the first day. In the afternoon of the second day, a range facility will be needed for practice in setting up a course of fire and conducting live fire exercises. All students will need to bring a rulebook and a notebook for use during the seminar. I will ship a few extra rulebooks with the course materials for those who might have misplaced theirs, but ultimately the onus is on the student to provide his/her rulebook for class. Students must be current USPSA members, but they may renew or join at the seminar. Copy the attached application and have all students complete it prior to the first morning. If you have problems with the attachment please let me know and I'll send it another way. Collect the fees for the class, deposit them into your club’s account and then issue the instructor one check from that account. The instructor will then forward that check onto USPSA. However, USPSA membership renewals and sign-ups can come in on individual checks. There will be some membership brochures sent with your course materials as well.

  11. If it's the one we borrowed last December, well, it's still in my trunk. Sorry, but when the dust settled I couldn't remember who loaned it to us. Want to pick it up in June at the match? Wayne
  12. Hi Folks, I heard about the motel problems and called today to see what was going on. I convinced the 'lady' at the Rodeway to search the blocked rooms and she finally found us. The rooms are blocked under "UNITED PISTOL ASSOCIATION". My name is also on it too. I THINK(?) she understood to change the name to USPSA, like on the contract, but the front desk help may not be able to do that. I'll be calling the sales manager Monday to see if she can get it changed back to USPSA. BTW, the Microtel and Quality Inn probably have the same problem. So PLEASE TRY AGAIN. You should have better luck this time. Thanks. Sorry about that. Wayne Miller Match Director 2007 Area 4 Championship
  13. Hi Folks, I talked to Hicks today and Manny now has the list of award winners from last December's match. Along with the EzWinScore database of the match I sent him the other day the plaques/medals should be in the mail soon. Manny is in Florida until Friday but he told Hicks he would get started on them first thing Monday. Hope this helps get your awards to you soon. BTW, if any of you have moved or for some reason have a different address from the one you gave at registration last year I would suggest you contact Manny at Protech and let him know your new address. See you on the range. Wayne Miller Match Director 2007 Area 4 Championship
  14. Hi Folks, I played such a minor role last year in the match (I was a RO) that I didn't read any of the threads posted here about it until yesterday and YIKES! Let me see if I can light a fire under Hick's rear and get something going. And if I can I'll post it here as soon as possible. Thanks. And sorry that happened. I can guarantee it won't happen this year. Wayne Miller Match Director 2007 Area 4 Championship Well I can't speak for him but it sure looks like he isn't very concerned about getting the awards to the people that earned them. All he has to do is send an email to Manny with the names and addresses of the winners. I would think a guy could do that in 3 months, wouldn't you?I have a hard time coming up with a good reason, but a lot of people traveled a long way to shoot that match. If you are lucky enough to win an Area match, it's nice to get what you have coming to you. He sent me a email about a month ago saying he was working on them. It's getting pretty tough to believe him. Do you just accept the fact we may never get our trophies?
  15. Hi All, I’m proud to announce that effective this evening the applications for the 2007 Area 4 Championship are now available at http://www.uspsa4.org/matches.htm . There are 2 types available. The old paper style you can print out and mail in with a check and our new electronic version that allows you to use a credit card or PayPal to register and pay the entry fee. The electronic entry form is easy to use. Plus, it will get you a much quicker response with a passcode for using the Self Squad Feature. If you need one of the all day squad slots or one of the other slots this is definitely the format for you. In most cases I will respond to you with a passcode within 24-48 hours. The Post Office might get your paper entry to me in 3 or 4 days after you mail it. But either way I will respond to every shooter in the order in which I received their entry. Our webmaster is currently working on the match shirt order form and we have no raffle items at this time but these two issues will be resolved soon so please return to our site often to see how to order these. I’m looking forward to hearing from everyone out there and seeing you at the range in June. And as always, please contact me if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks, Wayne Miller TY34768 Match Director 2007 Area 4 Championship 214-335-8468 cell
