  1. Tom, As I understand the rules of holding a Registered or Approved Action Pistol Match, you do not have to shoot the Moving Target event! The Match Director has the job of deciding which of the 16 different courses of fire he wishes to use for his match. Is this not true? If this is, then the Mover should not have anything to do with why people are not holding or shooting our game. I understand that you are just trying to help our game grow! It's just not the Bianchi Cup if we don't shoot the four courses we normally shoot. This is just my opinion and I think long time Bianchi Cup participants will agree with me! Mike
  2. Kim, I would like to see most of the Competitors come back that we lost when the rules changes drove them away! I hope you will come back this year. Mike H.
  3. I'm mad as hell with the rule changes made over the years! I've been shooting this game for over 10 years and have seen it go downhill severely. Every time they make a change it does not help. This should give them an idea that what they are doing is wrong and ask the current competitive shooter in the sport what they would like to see and then get feedback on it before making a change. Don't just emply there is over 1200 registered shooters and we only got a responce from 100 so this is not the majority speaking out on the changes. You have to look at the current active shooters comments and what they would like. Don't disregaurd what we have to say because you think we are the minority of the group. It always seems amazing to me that we can have so many new competitors shoot the Cup each year and our numbers don't grow because of the competitors that won't shoot our game again after changes are made. If they did not like the game they would not have shot it in the first place, so I fell like we are running off our competitors. IE: (rules changes) When the stock class was told they could not touch the Barricades or go prone until the 50 yard line I felt this was a bad deal for them but I didn't hear anyone complain. The next thing I know is now someone has put a bug in the NRA's ear to make in open class and everyone has to stand until the 50 yard line. The shooting should be freestyle just the way it was intended to be no matter what type of gun you shoot. Put restrictions on the guns used in each catagory, open or metallic, not the way the competitor shoots it, and not how many lbs. the trigger pull is. Open class should be exactly what it sounds like! Open to what you feel will help you as long as it is safe. Be inovative! Now we are talking about putting a black 4" dot for the X ring! Why? The game was setup to make you find center mass without any markings. If I wanted to shoot a target with a black center I would shoot bullseye or ppc. This is not what I wanted to shoot then and it is not what I want to shoot now but they are trying to make me start shooting the other games and leave this one. Somehow we need to get back to the way the game was before all the changes. I will close for now and hope that I didn't offend anyone. I just needed to say something about what is happening to the game I loved at one time.
