Doesn't really affect me at all... I'll run the timer until I'm in the hole. Once I'm in the hole, hand the timer to someone else, whether they are competent or not.

As the CRO on that stage, please delete that photo... That Damn cable gave me a headache for 8 hours Saturday! Don't need any more reminders of it!

While on that topic, will the el presidente stage count as a classifier?

I know jabs xtreme steel targets has made some. Might want to shot them an email

Bidding farewell to this thread, heading to the other

The targets are the same size so don't worry. Honestly, level two matches tend to be a little more technical. Tighter shots, harder leans, further distance, awkward shooting positions, things like that.

Almost forgot about it at 815 and there was only 30 spots left. Hope all the staff spots aren't taken.

it was my experience at area 6, both shooting one day and working a stage the other 3, that half the shooters didn't listen to a word of the stage briefing.

I'm write positive I'm getting bumped to B class after winning C class at area 6 in limited and a good classifier the week before.

Chandler Nelson. Army guy from Dothan

I'm sure it will be decent, considering I got a gun for winning limited C class.

Allen, I was one of the ROs on 4 and 5 and that's the first I've heard of that. Do you happen to know who the shooters were and were they one the same squad?

In like Flynn

Mike, when do you want us to apply for RO?

Level I = local matches Level II = State or Section matches Level III = Area Matches Level IV = Nationals It's spelled out in the rule book the difference, but local matches are level 1, most majors are level 2, and nationals are usually level 3. Level 2 has to have stages approved by DNROI and level 3 has other requirements like chino and CRO per stage.

I agree. Anyone who runs up range after engaging those last 6 targets to engage 6 more has already significantly screwed the pooch anyways. My main question is this. Can one be double penalized. Say you get a Squibb or gun falls apart prior to engaging last array. Do you get 6 miles, 3 FTE, and 3 "failure to do rights" because last 6 you did shoot prior to malfunction want weak hand only?

Don't be surprised if alot of matches don't even do a cash payout. Each one is different. Some it's cash, some it's prizes, some it's just a trophy.

Go my plaque at the awards ceremony so no need to ship

I got my check today, so I'm sure others that further away I get them in the coming days

From speaking to Peter, he did tell me it would be a good mix of small medium and long courses if that helps any

I'll remind everyone of the fiasco at last year's area 6 where stages got posted, some other club ran a baby area 6 match and staff had to scramble to make new stages last minute after the uproar. Wouldn't surprise me if stages get posted the Sunday night before the match this year.

Matt, at last year's match, on Saturday, we were turning 7-8 person squads with a 3 minute walk through in less than 30 minutes. So yeah 9-10 stages in 5 hours, plus the range officers do all the pasting so all you do is shoot.

Dan emailed me for my address for a check the other day

Was a fun 3 days, that's for sure. Weather was perfect from set up through awards. Dan, I'm glad I got to be but a small part in the match. Can't wait until next year as I'm sure things will be just as great, if not better!

Already got my vacation days in. Was a great batch to work last year and can't wait for this year
